lyrics

I know it seems like you’re wading through treacle
Look at all of these people
They don’t know how you feel
They don’t know how you feel
And vice versa
I can’t be there but I’m thinking of you always
Blue sky cold like bubblegum sorbet
What ever happened to the universe parallel
Where everything was all sweet, all caramel
Now you’re spinning on the carousel, mad as hell
Got me wandering what you’re gonna do like Annabel
Picture you in the kitchen no sleep getting
Despair crouching in the corner like a blunt weapon
This is the hardest time
The dark before the dawn in a Tardis mind, but
Rest assured in you’re heart’s design
There’s a method to the madness every part’s divine
Watch
We’ve been here before I think it’s time to leave
The past could never poison everything you’ve done
All of this will fade into obscurity
Only looking back to see how far we’ve come

[CHORUS]
Don’t look back on this
With regret I know it’s
Something that you’ll have to
Get your head around to
Don’t look back on this
With regret I know it’s
Something that you’ll have to
Get your head around

I know it seems like you’ll burst at the seams
Like the worst of your dreams picked you first for the team
And you’re only seeing half of the scene
Like all the action’s happening off screen
Know what I mean?
We spill guts and leave the viscera glistening
I don’t always know what to say but I’ll be listening
This’ll stay for a while but in the end
I see an end to the struggle
Wild flowers in the rubble
Always remember, time the great healer
The great fate sealer for demons that seem realer
In the night time but when the day breaks
We see ‘em off like they don’t exist
Flick of the wrist
When you lost that you still had this
And it’s amazing through all the madness
We’re finding new levels of love up in the sadness
We’re finding new levels of love up in the sadness
Yeah
We’ve been here before I think it’s time to leave
The past could never poison everything you’ve done
All of this will fade into obscurity
Only looking back to see how far we’ve come

[CHORUS]

It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright (repeat)
