Through the Eyes of a Hurricane Songtext
Yeah, lights dim
Somewhere in the east of the city
These thoughts swim between reality and a dream
I just wanna be alone for a minute
I′m just thinking about how I ain't been home for a minute
Thinking like oh my God, this life
She wants more of mine
Uh, I guess you weren′t ready for me
I heard most of my past have gone quiet on me
See, drinks with you became drinks over you
But I think I'm going sober, man, that shit's overdue
Truth is, all my brothers with me
Are some of the realest, fearless, clearest-minded souls ever untold
You must have been mistaken
Don′t get it fucked up
Can′t afford to get it fucked up right now
Black and white lenses distort the perspective
Promised my mom I'd be back before the end of this sentence
And we′re alright with the darker side
It's inevitable, waiting for a dream
And we′re alright with the darker side
It's inevitable, waiting for a dream
I′ll tell my story, how dare you tell it for me
I walked into your world, you watched me leave through the other side
She was wishing for more Chanel and Dior
While I was washing my sins in some Dom Perignon
This vertigo got my back up against the views
That I grew in a darkroom
I told you I'd be back before the sun sets
Breaking bread with my flatmates
I'm grounded now, I′m over that
Yeah, and now she wants me back
I guess that′s only right
She only wants a home at the highest heights
Three and a half thousand miles of perspective
But still couldn't outrun the stars; grip of the pencil
I can help you to overcome all your fears
Let the water fall like your tears
Overcome your nightmares for a dream
They say there′s no life in the comfort zone
And no life where the cameras go
So where were you when I was coming up
I took my time and in time I trust
If beauty is pain, art is risk, what does that make love?
Treading a fine line on my way to God
The path feels straight vertical
Follow the skyscrapers to the place that we've been dreaming of
I promise I won′t let you fall this time
Finally satisfied with everything I've left behind
And we′re alright with the darker side
It's inevitable, waiting for a dream
And I'm falling, falling, falling
Will you be there when I can see?
Somewhere in the east of the city
These thoughts swim between reality and a dream
I just wanna be alone for a minute
I′m just thinking about how I ain't been home for a minute
Thinking like oh my God, this life
She wants more of mine
Uh, I guess you weren′t ready for me
I heard most of my past have gone quiet on me
See, drinks with you became drinks over you
But I think I'm going sober, man, that shit's overdue
Truth is, all my brothers with me
Are some of the realest, fearless, clearest-minded souls ever untold
You must have been mistaken
Don′t get it fucked up
Can′t afford to get it fucked up right now
Black and white lenses distort the perspective
Promised my mom I'd be back before the end of this sentence
And we′re alright with the darker side
It's inevitable, waiting for a dream
And we′re alright with the darker side
It's inevitable, waiting for a dream
I′ll tell my story, how dare you tell it for me
I walked into your world, you watched me leave through the other side
