Was it a dream when I called you
To help me through what I couldn't do?
I can't believe what I went through
I needed you there to feel it too

Cause no-one ever understood
Burnout - I keep it under the hood
Always be like they think I should
Make one wrong move I'll be out for good

LCL - amber filling my lungs
Sympathy - instrumentality

Was I alone all of those times
I held so dear - your hand in mine
That person wasn't you inside
Wishful thinking, romanticised

I'm looking out but stuck inside
All external input denied
Frozen and hyperaware I'm
Spiralling off linear time

Where are you - Where we are
Long ago - Once again
I saw you - Beside me
On repeat - I hate this

LCL - amber filling my lungs
Sympathy - instrumentality
