Lyrics

I flew beyond the sun before it was time

I ventured into the unknown, pushing boundaries prematurely

Burning all the gold that held me inside my shell

Sacrificing valuable aspects of myself

Waiting for you to pull me back in

Hoping for someone to rescue me

I almost had the world in my sight

I came close to achieving great things


Lost love, bright eyes fading

Lost a romantic connection, with bright eyes dimming

Faster than stars falling

Rapidly losing significance like stars falling

How can I tell you that I've failed?

Struggling to admit my failure

Tell you I failed

Expressing the acknowledgment of failure


Falling from grace 'cause I've been away too long

Falling from a state of favor due to prolonged absence

Leaving you behind with my lonesome song

Leaving a loved one with a melancholic song

Now I'm lost in oblivion

Currently immersed in a state of forgetfulness and neglect


I tried to burrow a hole into the ground

Attempting to escape reality by digging a metaphorical hole

Breaking all the fingers and the nails from my hand

Self-destructive actions, causing harm to myself

The eyes of a child see no wrong

Children's innocence sees no faults

Ignorant bliss, impending doom

Being blissfully unaware of impending disaster


Lost love, bright eyes fading

Lost love continues to fade, resembling vanishing stars

Faster than stars falling

The deterioration is happening rapidly

How can I tell you that I've failed?

Struggling to communicate the extent of my failure

Tell you I failed

Reiterating the acknowledgment of failure


Falling from grace 'cause I've been away too long

Falling from a state of favor due to prolonged absence (repeated)

Leaving you behind with my lonesome song

Leaving a loved one with a melancholic song (repeated)

Now I'm lost

Currently immersed in a state of forgetfulness and neglect (repeated)


Falling from grace 'cause I've been away too long

Falling from a state of favor due to prolonged absence (repeated)

Leaving you behind with my lonesome song

Leaving a loved one with a melancholic song (repeated)

Now I'm lost in oblivion

Currently immersed in a state of forgetfulness and neglect (repeated)


Falling from grace 'cause I've been away too long

Falling from a state of favor due to prolonged absence (repeated)

Leaving you behind with my lonesome song

Leaving a loved one with a melancholic song (repeated)

Now I'm lost

Currently immersed in a state of forgetfulness and neglect (repeated)


Falling from grace 'cause I've been away too long

Falling from a state of favor due to prolonged absence (repeated)

Leaving you behind with my lonesome song

Leaving a loved one with a melancholic song (repeated)

Now I'm lost in oblivion, in oblivion, in oblivion

Currently immersed in a state of forgetfulness and neglect (repeated)
