well I know you know
know you're a part
a part of me
speak through
in a tongue
in a language
we need
but I'm only one
but one becomes
all you need
all you see
all you read
what's gonna be
holding me
back down
soften in the speed of sound
what's gonna be
holding me
when the doubts come back around
but you're far from the sound
when it fades out
when it hits the clouds
on again
wrapped in slow motion
can't pretend
when it's one it's one again
on again
wrapped in slow motion
so you're on
on an end
can I know you
like a friend
when we're reaching
for what we believe in
so you're on
on an end
can I know you
like a friend
by the second hand
would you follow me
once you weren't
so clever
but this endeavor
you'll remember
so I give you my trust
and sew it shut
