It Stays the Same Songtext
von Vacant Home

What if my path was destined for me?
A staple in the absence, the man I′m born to be
Chosen by heart or chosen by head
Chosen by heart, my only regret

These internal influences
Making me question what is and what should be
(Making me)
Making me question myself again

Wanting to take a step back, moving too far forward
Dragging the weight to not be rewarded
Taught to think about the future, taught to think about the past
What if the present we desire doesn't exist?


(It′s only a sinking feeling)
Am I cornered and defenseless?
My walls begin to close in
These days are numbered (this is the way)
The thinning ice is breaking
(The victory) and it's my catastrophe
These walls are closing in

Why can't I see?
Is this all I am?
Can′t help but think of the future
Feels like I′m stuck in the past

Alone in my thoughts
A sign that I never saw
A weight that only seems to grow
Has become too much to hold

Now I'm barely breathing
I can feel my lungs collapse
Never thought I′d feel this way
I didn't come this far to falter

Give me the air I need
Give me the chance to breathe the air I need
A chance to breathe the air I need
Give me the chance to breathe
