The Bend of the Earth

from The Stellar Background by Roman Lions

lyrics

Some days, some days.
The spinning it feels the same.
Let gravity settle you where you lay.
Our minds can’t grasp all that empty space,
but our hearts still feel it when its there, just the same.

Some days, some days.
Just out of reach. Whats ahead has always been to far for me.
I’ve been here far to long but I’m not sure whats changed.
I still think that I should have more things to say.

Good bye, stay safe.
I need to leave. Emptiness has always been a theme for me.
My legs will bear what my heart can’t take,
but like the tides my mind will change with every phase.

These days, these days.
The spinning it feels the same.
Let gravity settle me where it may.
Our minds can’t grasp all that empty space,
but our hearts still feel it when its there, just the same.

Get back to the bend of the earth, where I feel the same.
If I could just know there’s something more, I could find the end. I could find the end.

If I could get past the bend of the earth, would it be the same?
and if I could know there’s something more, could I find the end? could I find the end?

I have been here so long I don’t know what has changed,
I am counting the days until I start the escape.
I could build up speed to sail through the wind,
where the air gets thin and the oceans end.
I want to feel like Im weightless just to know what it means.
I want to see all the views that make me weak in the knees.
I want to feel all the things that you can never teach,
always just beyond, always just out of reach.

I could build up speed just to sail through the wind,
where the air gets thin and the ocean ends.
I want to feel like Im weightless just to know what it means.
I want to see all the views that make me weak in the knees.
I want to feel all the things that you can never teach,
always just beyond, always just out of reach.

If I could get past the bend of the earth, would I feel the same?
and if I could know there’s something more, could I find the end? could I find the end?
If I could get past the bend of the earth, would I feel the same?
and if I could know there’s something more, could I find the end? A peaceful end.
