It hasn't been too long   since I've been following the sun,   crossing streets with my eyes closed,   swimming the river alone. And I knew   how you felt   when you saw me dive in.   But what could I do?   I had my heart   set on it.      Some people have   a way   of searching for their end.   And most don't even know   they're looking for it.   Late in the night,   we'll pass each other by,   see each other for a moment   but it's only borrowed light.      And all I see is   distance.   And all I can feel is where   my heart is.   If you only knew   how hard it is,   I'd find my way home   through all of this.      One day you'll understand   when you swim the way I've gone.   You'll fill the streets with flowers.   You'll wake up with the sun.   And then you'll know   how I felt   when you saw me diving in.   I was looking for the dark.   I was trying to forget.      Cuz all I see is   distance.   And all I can feel is where   my heart is.   If you only knew   how hard it is,   I'd find my way home   through all of this.
