sea of clouds

they worked me over

there was nothing they could see

i hid it all behind my eyes

somewhere in a fog of a million pleasantries

i kept my secret safe inside

when we were younger and we couldn't help but dream

i couldn't keep you in my life

as we get older now

i cannot help but think

we've all just settled for a lie

well

hello to your sea of clouds

tell me are you ever coming down

tell me how you never hit the ground

tell me how you live your life so easily

as a memory

did we make promises or did we just pretend

before you slipped away one night

it feels like a movie and long before the end

someone turns on all the lights

so i played the beginning

again and again

'til there was nothing more that i could find

whatever you needed from me

i'm not sure

i only wish i had complied

well

hello to your sea of clouds

tell me are you ever coming down

tell me how you never hit the ground

tell me how you live your life so easily

as a memory

come work me over

cause i do not wish to hide

i hide it all behind my eyes

as we get older now

can you not help but cry?

we've all just settled for a lie

well

hello to your sea of clouds

tell me are you ever coming down

tell me how you never hit the ground

tell me how you live your life so easily

as a memory

well

hello to your sea of clouds

tell me are you ever coming down

tell me how you never hit the ground

tell me how you live your life so.
