Miracle Mile

from NEVER LOST by That Dream Was Our Life

/

lyrics

Miracle mile, is that how it starts
You know I can't follow the road that you walk
What's real in the light, what's cruel in the dark

A ghost that you carry, invisible weight
A dream lingers on even after you wake
Meaning's not what you find, it's what you create

The floor won't stop spinning, the water's too hot
Staying together while coming apart
Sidestep your thoughts, see them for what they are

Who you are is where you disappear
Not what kills your sleep, it's not what you fear
Wipe the shame from your cheeks as if they were tears

Sometimes I lie to myself & forget that I ever said it
Do you have contempt for the love that you want in case you never get it
This can't go on forever, it couldn't be saved
Sometimes it's for the better to watch a half life decay

Miracle Mile, never noticed before
So many lives, above & below
Of which I know nothing, not even my own

I want to get lost in the blank of a map
Follow a star or get caught in a trap
When anything dies does it ever come back
