back to you

Illenium

Had a bad dream on the operating table
I tried to scream, but I wasn t able
They replaced my veins with cables
Now I ll never be the same again

I can t recharge your spirit
I can see a light, but I can t get near it
Echoes of your voice, but I can t quite hear it
How did we end up here?

I spent a lifetime lost
A generation letting go
Another day that I can t break through
It s a long way back to you
Another two years gone
I spent forev?r letting go
And I don t wanna face the truth
It s a long way back to you

Now th? days slowly fade into sleepless nights
Lie awake, empty spaces and wasted time
Push and pull, give and take, couldn t make you mine, no

And I just wanna recharge your spirit
I can see a light, but I can t get near it
Echoes of your voice, but I can t quite hear it
How did we end up here?

I spent a lifetime lost
A generation letting go
Another day that I can t break through
It s a long way back to you
Another two years gone
I spent forever letting go
And I don t wanna face the truth
It s a long way back to you

If everything heals with time
Then why is our flame dying?
If you don t want to get this right
Then why are we still trying?
If everything heals with time
Then why is our flame dying?
If you don t want to get this right
Then why are we still tryin ?

If everything heals with time
Then why is our flame dyin ? (Why is our flame dyin ?)
If you don t want to get this right
Then why are we still tryin ? (Why are we still tryin ?)
If everything heals with time (I spent a lifetime lost)
Then why is our flame dyin ? (A generation of letting go)
If you don t want to get this right
(And now the daylight can t break through)
Then why are we still tryin ? (It s a long way back to you)

If everything heals with time (Another two years gone)
Then why is our flame dyin ? (I spent forever letting go)
If you don t want to get this right
(And I don t wanna face the truth)
Then why are we still tryin ? (It s a long way back to you)
