[intro]
“thinking of jumping? well don’t jump ’till you hear the wave crash against the cliff. water’ll take you out. let it. first time i did it, younger than you, i thought i’d break my neck and just sort of float out to catalina. you don’t always get what you wish for.”

[verse 1]
like snow still on a branch
at rest no disturbance
they’re waiting for the avalanche
to wash away this trance

bracing for the impact
feelin’ wind and start to panic
hearin’ from afar the rumble
at their core they start to tremble

at their knees they’re brought to crumble
on their hands they feel the rubble
try to see, their vision’s troubled
take a step, their feet they stumble

feelin’ sand sinkin’ through their palms
and see the ground beneath turn to stones
sharp little rocks cuttin’ trough their bones
now, this is it, finally feel the calm

[chorus]
there’s nowhere to go on
no they don’t belong
on and on they’ve longed
for air in their lungs

[verse 2]
they were born in the th-rns of a flower that never blossomed
in the eye of a storm where the calm can’t be found
where the wave hits the stone with such force it gets torn
and the echoes that form signify what they yearn for

the day they were sworn to protect all from harm as they laid down their arms
but the voice they called would not respond
their scorn for life had grown
from this point on the warmth of the cold filled their lungs

although this too shall pass, it wasn’t meant to last
watching life slip by like sand through an hourglass
seconds turn days, before you know it’s your last
hence no matter how it’s green, you should take care of your grass

so they’re still dreamin’ of a place where they feel alright
longin’ for a world where the sun’s so bright
somewhere their chest doesn’t feel so tight
no all they really f-ckin’ need’s a little peace and quiet

[pre-chorus]
they looked for way too long

[chorus]
but there’s nowhere to go on
no they don’t belong
on and on they’ve longed
for somewhere to call home

[verse 3]
while the flame within is quickly fadin’, their rope’s running thin
the earth below keeps movin’, got them fallin’ out of their skin
there’s just so many f-ckin’ things they’ll never understand
the thought never crossed their mind that they’d get betrayed by their own kin

now they’re tryna light their torch just to see what’s ahead
but the fire’s got them melting like a god d-mn snowman
seein’ this world as-is wasn’t part of the plan
press escape and then quit, no saving from this land

now how did it come to this, living’s a catalyst
for their every struggles and everyday cataclysms
they feel like a god d-mn mess, everything feels like a test
they just wanna go somewhere where time stops, somewhere they can decompress

movin’ in a tiny little house on the side of the forest
they’d work hard all day, and at night they would rest
far, far, far away, far away from this stress
n0body, no noise, no nothin’ but bliss
