Accidental Light
[Verse 1]
On your mark, get set...
A million miles past the finish line
My heels lift
At this imaginary starting line
The trigger slips;
My heart was racing well before it's time's running out
It's always running out on me
As the road up ahead disappears
[Verse 2]
Though it's all been said
And this empty dictionary is all that's left
I'll try to change the world in a single word
My hands are shaking, ready or not
Invisible ink, well, it's all I've got
So I'll concentrate and pick from these barren trees
[Refrain]
'Cause time's running out, it's always running out on me
And every road I discover disappears under my feet
Some call it reckless, some call it breathing
[Bridge]
Have I said too much or not enough?
Is it overkill or is it giving up
Just to measure out the distance of an echo's reach?
If it's all broken mirrors and a chance roll of the dice
Then I'll risk everything for a glimpse of accidental light
[Refrain]
'Cause time's running out, it's always running out on me
Every road I've discovered disappears under my feet
Some call it reckless, I call it breathing
