20. Doubt

20. Doubt (song)

verse 1

Something in his eyes, it keeps me guessing
There's an answer why I've been here all this time
And it's wrapped up in this ever-burning question
Will the sun rise?

verse 2

There's an ever-rushing tide that keeps me steady
Hope beyond the hope that sometimes fades away
Hiding underneath the maybe and not ready
Will he find another way?

chorus
Moving on
Towards or away
Doubting vows and that he’ll stay
Running for
The higher prize
I’m so much more than golden beams and empty eyes
Will the sun rise?

verse 3

Chains on doors and empty hearths and closed up windows
Things he leaves behind but chase him in the dark
Shame is all but fear and calls in distance echoes
Is that all, is that all that we are?

chorus
Moving on
Towards or away
Doubting vows and that he’ll stay
Running for
The higher prize
I’m so much more than hollow halls and lilac skies

Will the sun rise?

bridge

His father left him standing at the station
While the sky rumbled and turned to black and blue
And now it haunts him every time that it starts raining
And he doesn't understand when I say I will stay with you
No, he doesn't understand when I say I will stay with you


chorus
Moving on
Towards or away
Doubting vows and that he’ll stay
Running for
The higher prize

So much more than golden beams and empty eyes
So much more than hollow halls and lilac skies
So much more than what they say about you and I
So much more than questioning the sunrise

verse 4

Something in his eyes, it keeps me drowning

I’m a shadow of the one I used to be

Giving up my time distrusting and self-doubting

I’ve become nothing more than weak.
