I'll admit that I lost myself somewhat
In the city I begged to pick me up
Dragging everything I own behind me

I found myself in the wake of what remained
A chosen future that never had a name
Faith is only a friend until you've lost its game

You are always out of reach
Universe away from me
I belong to what I seek
Forever indebted to my dreams

I took the last of the money I could make
Paid my dues to a planted memory
Should've noticed the faces that surrounded me

Empty shells on the pavement guide the way
To a city that's built on tragedy
Watched my step while I ran from insecurity

You are always out of reach
Universe away from me
I belong to what I seek
Forever indebted to my dreams

I strain my shoulders like Sisyphus's fate
Pushing my body to bear the crushing weight
I should've noticed the thread I traced was worn and frayed

I watched the ones with the means to stay awake
Leave trails of gold like breadcrumbs in their wake
I guess I should've been born another time or place

You are always out of reach
Universe away from me
I belong to what I seek
Forever indebted to my dreams

I locked my eyes with the prize I thought I'd won
Then realized I had lost it all at once
Everything was in line before it had begun

You are always out of reach
Universe away from me
I belong to what I seek
Forever indebted to my dreams

You are always out of reach
Universe away from me
I belong to what I seek
Forever indebted to my dreams
