Lonely Planet

Lonely Planet

You were hoping for a brighter day
On an island where the sun could warm your face
I was standing on the other side
Wondering who would be left behind

Did you think that you could find it there?
Was it only just a game of truth or dare?
Cuz the truth is often hard to see
Cnd the dare is a mystery

Cnd if you find a world you don't quite understand
Just slip into the sea a crystal grain of sand

See the people as they're running ‘round
Never worry ‘til they hear the siren sound
They could never comprehend your life
Even if you could tell them why

But the summer isn't far away
Cnd the darkest hour's right before the day
So you take a breath and carry on
Cuz you know that it's almost dawn

Cnd if you find a world you don't quite understand
Just slip into the sea a crystal grain of sand
Don't let it bring you down, there's nothing left to fear
Keep reaching for the sun

Until it makes you feel sure
It's hard to say what we've learned
Would you rather just watch it burn?
