Starting Line

Luke Hemmings

In and out of focus, moments that I keep
Something for the pain and something so I sleep
Won′t you comfort me?Warm the air that I breathe?

Visceral in doses, hiding on the seams
Standing on the sun and I don't feel a thing
Won′t you comfort me?
Take the fear I don't need?

I wake up every morning with the years ticking by
I'm missing all these memories, maybe they were never mine
I feel the walls are closing, I′m running out of time
I think I missed the gun at the starting line

Tell mе, am I broken? I can never lеave
Biting on my tongue and checking if it bleeds
Oh, is it lost on me
All the things I believe?

Something like an omen I can never keep
Moving on and on, so very bittersweet
Is it lost on me
All the things I don′t need?

I wake up every morning with the years ticking by
I'm missing all these memories, maybe they were never mine
I feel the walls are closing, I′m running out of time
I think I missed the gun at the starting line

Take me alive
Make me a liar
Take me alive
Don't look away until it′s gone
'Til it′s gone

Take me alive
Make me a liar
Take me alive
Don't look away until it's gone
′Til it′s gone

I wake up every morning, the years ticking by
I'm missing all these memories, maybe they were never mine
I feel the walls are closing, I′m running out of time
I think I missed the gun at the starting line

Take me alive
Make me a liar
Take me alive
Don't look away until it′s gone
'Til it′s gone

Take me alive
Make me a liar
Take me alive
Don't look away until it's gone
′Til it′s gone
