Their arms, they reach
They branch like they're trying to catch me
They stand so tirelesslyOutgrown, the sides of roads
Are mixed in gold
The summer has meThe summer has me sold
I see the hints, just picture it
Craving to witness
But we blinked and missed itBeg to the sky
Long days and all nights
Beg to the sky
Long days and all nightsHere we are, rooted deep
Looking up, so sun sweet
Until the fall, we lose it all
Here we areThin and bare, stuck in a stiff stare
I wait up in the air that makes it all fair
We stop and grow and stop and grow
We co exist, flourished and sun kissedAnything you'd like
Your back road eyes
They're getting dry
And unnatural smileYou're lost in this place
I see it in your face
Lost in this place
I see it in your faceHere we are, rooted deep
Looking up, so sun sweet
Until the fall, we lose it all
Here we areYeah, whoaThere's a vulture on my shoulder
The time I'm wasting
Can't say where I've beenHey, mind reader
Don't let me get away
Don't let me get away
(You'll never know)Stranger, I know so well
Don't let me get away
Don't let me get awayB-b-blame it on the television
You make your own love
I-I-I'm pulling, I'm pushing
I'm putting it out of my mindWe aim our arrows high
Oh dear, I've worked with father sky
So why don't we just go?Don't let me get away
Don't let me get away
(So why don't we just go?)Don't let me get away
Don't let me get away
I'm lost in itThere's a vulture on my shoulder
Don't let me get away
Don't let me get away
I'm lost in it, so lost in it
