Chasing Home: Love's Journey in Actve Captve's 'May'
Lyrics
We found each other so far from home
We discovered each other while being far from our original homes.
Your heart is anchored to a coastal highway
Your emotions are connected to a coastal route that we both desire, but each pursuing on our own.
That we both dream of, but on our own
Attempted to communicate with you as you walked away.
I tried to reach you as you walked away
This happened in the month of May.
Back in May
I observed you leaving while music played in the background.
I watch you backing as the music plays
From your bed.
From your bed
I expected you to return for me, but instead, I remain here waiting.
I thought you'd come back for me, instead
Some words hold a magical quality when spoken with the right intention.
I still lie here waiting
Someday I'll find the right words to express myself.
Some words are magic when they're said the right way
No reliance on charm or cheap tricks to keep you captivated.
Some day I'll find the right words to say
All I desire is to have you present in my life.
No charm or cheap tricks to keep you spellbound
I once believed your scars were beautiful.
All I want is to have you around
I used to think highly of myself, considering myself special.
I used to think your wounds were beautiful
But there's no bravery in avoiding challenges and escaping.
I used to think that I was something special
Don't blame external factors when you actively contribute to the issues.
But babe, there's nothing brave in running away
Truthfully, you weren't seeking the truth.
Don't blame the fire when you fan the flames
And, honestly, I wasn't searching for honesty either.
Truth be told
We both found what we desired.
You weren't looking for truth, I know
Reiteration that certain words have a magical impact when expressed sincerely.
And honestly
Someday, I'll discover the right words to convey my feelings.
I wasn't looking for honesty
No reliance on charm or tricks to keep you fascinated.
We both found what we wanted
All I want is to have you in my life.
Some words are magic when they're said the right way
Perhaps, we will both find our way back home at some point.
Some day I'll find the right words to say
There, I might encounter you, and you'll be joyous to see me.
No charm or cheap tricks to keep you spellbound
We'll smile after the passage of time.
All I want is to have you around
Reiteration of the magical impact of certain words when spoken sincerely.
Maybe we'll both find our way back home sometime
Someday, I'll find the right words to express myself.
And there I may see you, and you'll be so glad to see me
No reliance on charm or cheap tricks to keep you captivated.
We'll smile after all this time
All I desire is to have you present in my life.
Some words are magic when they're said the right way
Perhaps, we will both find our way back home at some point.
Some day I'll find the right words to say
There, I might encounter you, and you'll be joyous to see me.
No charm or cheap tricks to keep you spellbound
We'll smile after the passage of time.
All I want is to have you around
Reiteration of the magical impact of certain words when spoken sincerely.
Maybe we'll both find our way back home sometime
Perhaps, we will both find our way back home at some point.
And there I may see you, and you'll be so glad to see me
There, I might encounter you, and you'll be joyous to see me.
We'll smile after all this time
We'll smile after the passage of time.
