Island

It's color by numbers

I'm a pretender, I wear a smile on my face for a while

I think I'm unable, I'm undecided

Life in a glass house won't keep you alive

Do I really have to make it clear

That life's a survival, I guess I'm not fittest or else I would be

Somewhere far away from here, guess I am somewhere faraway

Cause I am an Island, you took away my oars

Now I'm left wanderin', all up and down the shore

I'm casting up flares tryin' to warm up your heart

And the stars are just memories of the days when our eyes met

Now I am an Island, Cause I am an Island

Time is abundant, Contact one sided

Is this a prison or within my reach?

When the dust has settled I put myself in this place

And even though I need outa here it's the only place I'm safe

Cause I am an Island, you took away my oars

Now I'm left wanderin', all up and down the shore

I'm casting up flares tryin' to warm up your heart

And the stars are just memories of the days when our eyes met

Now I am an Island

Your voice echo's in the trees

When the wind is on my back

I can feel it in the breeze

With a whisper it comes back to the beginning

Where our shadow was cast

And on the day that it came crashing down I could collapse

Life is lonely when its only a game

I built a wall around my heart when you stepped outa the frame

But I only have myself to blame

Cause I am an Island, you took away my oars

Now I'm left wanderin', all up and down the shore

I'm casting up flares tryin' to warm up your heart

And the stars are just memories of the days when our eyes met

Now I am an Island, Cause I am an Island
