lyrics

In Your Cave

Rising up to take a look
See the care you could have took
Why don’t
You take a little time

Only ever surface deep
And hindsight makes you weep
So now
You’re going to have to climb

The vision of yourself you see
And how you turn out to be
Don’t always
Meet so you feel true

Wish that you’d said this or that
Performed another act
You’ve got
To live with what you do

CH
You could be on your way to something good
So you must show you want to know
Don’t want to mourn the choices you could have made
Just let go
Crawl out of your cave

Chances lost of feeling love
Oh to go back and give a shove
Strike out
Push for what you want to get

Bottles rattling round your mind
Pressure builds till you go blind
Release
Put your head above the parapet

You look back and it brings you a tear
There’s a place where your heart lives
Is it because you find it hard to steer
From where you still think your home is
Cast off put your sail to wind
Let it take you to a new place
Lay the memories to rest within
So you can wear a fresh face

Then when you’re turning back to look
You can see the care you took
No need
To put yourself on the rack
