Still a ways to go before the journey gets tough
+
I'd say to you, and then you'd scold me
+
Just the fact we live is cruel in of itself
+
Everyone knows that so much it's disgusting
+
There's something I want to show you one day
+
Just that is always in my heart
+
As I lose something, unable to touch it
+
You merely look beyond the clouds
+
Sure, even now, that we can make it to paradise
+
Soon after I wake up, I take a deep breath
+
Of the cold morning air, and choke on it
+
I look back on how terribly far we've come
+
And try to remember some of the roads we've traveled
+
They're hazy, but happy memories
+
You say having that is enough
+
While searching for something that will not be granted again
+
So far away that just the two of us get covered in dirt
+
Now I want to believe in a paradise where surely even you can smile
+
So that we can see the sea again tomorrow
+
We'll pick up the pace a little
+
So we don't continue to regret yesterday
+
We'll speed up time a little
+
As I lose something, unable to touch it
+
You merely look beyond the clouds
+
Sure, even now, that we can make it to paradise
+
Surely, for the sake of all the versions of me up until now that have smiled
+
