sunnylane rd Lyrics

Looking out of the window

Passing the road where I left you

We're frozen in time in my mind

In a safer place

Taking one step forward

And stumbling eight feet back

Looking over my shoulder

While you're making victory laps

And it shouldn't kill me

We all move at our own pace

But every time I close my eyes

I drift farther away

And you can't reach me

No matter what you do

I saw a thousand extended arms

And what did I choose

To push them away

Or grab at hands that I knew wouldn't stay

And now I've lost my place

Looking into my soul now

I see my younger self

She is small and she is scared

And she just needs some help

So I'm taking one step forward

Because I know she needs me to

I'll give her pieces of my heart

That did not belong to you

Thinking of those who have hurt me

Thinking of people I've left

The room starts to fill with colors blue

And feelings I misread

And maybe today I miss you

And maybe that's okay

I thought for sure I'd be dead by now

But I awoke again today

And you can't reach me

No matter what you do

I'll be a thousand extended arms

If that's what I so chose

To hold myself close today

To hold my hand and know that I will stay

I still take up space

I still have a place
