Standstill
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Where are we now? Where are we going?
To the ends of our worlds, if not further
Where are we now? Where are we going?
To the other side of right
From wherever I am
I call to you
From wherever I am tonight
We are strangers where we stand
Do I have to be the one to let this go forever
To see what lies unknown?
I don't want to be the one to let this go forever
We are what we can, we can only hope to forget
This distance-created curse
Of silence and waking nights
I thought I could see an end
To do whatever we can
To raise the stakes
To make everything count tonight
We are strangers where we stand
Do I have to be the one to let this go forever
To see what lies unknown?
I don't want to be the one to let this go forever
So this is where we are tonight
We're at a standstill till the end
From wherever I am
I call to you
I call to you
From wherever I am
From whoever I am tonight
We are strangers where we stand
Do I have to be the one to let this go forever
To see what lies unknown?
I don't want to be the one to let this go forever
So this is where we are tonight
There is nowhere to go from here
