a race for our autonomy

Singer:mae

i remember pacing back and forth in our cluttered room in wait of your reply

that was the day i found the strength to say those things and look you in the eye

the symbiotic nature of this bond is hardly paying in

those dividends are shrinking again

with choices lento make

chains to break

to forfeit is to win

it seems you're catching on to me

you're on to me i know

you've always been that part of me

that part that won't let go

a self-fulfilling prophecy

a heat that's frozen cold

when frightened by autonomy

we both refuse to grow

so i must ask

where do we go from here?

where do we go from here?

there is no love in fear

so where do we go from here?

i know we've heard our share of broken promises yet hang on every word

but when the past becomes the present such resentment in hard lines getting blurred

whoever got anywhere without the pulse of another beating heat?

those memories are falling apart now

with choices left to make

chains to break

to forfeit is to start

it seems you're catching on to me

you're on to me i know

you've always been that part of me

that part that won't let go

a self-fulfilling prophecy

a heat that's frozen cold

when frightened by autonomy

we both refuse to grow

so i must ask

where do we go from here?

where do we go from here?

there is no love in fear

so where do we go from here?

i see you catching up to me

and with it you should know

there is a hope where none should be

in time from letting go

it's giving into honesty

and taking back control

a race for our autonomy

a heat that's full of hope

the race is on

the race is on

the race is on

the race is on
