a race for our autonomy (acoustic)

i remember pacing back in 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 left to make and chains to break

to forfeit is to win

it seems you're catching on to me

you're onto me

i know

you've always been that part of me

that part that won't let go

a self-fulfilling prophecy

a heart 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 and hard lines getting blurred

whoever got anywhere without the pulse

of another beating heart?

those memories are falling apart now

the choices left to make and chains to break

to forfeit is to start

it seems you're catching on to me

you're onto me

i know

you've always been that part of me

that part that won't let go

a self-fulfilling prophecy

a heart 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?
