This is my promise to write to you, so for you my every word,
Is the sinking feeling here in my chest.
I am so far from home but the further away we are, the closer I am.
The closer I feel, the farther you get.
My hands hold on tight to your every word.
I won't let go, but I feel my eyes advert from who I used to be.

We know the storms [bad word] 
the winds they will sweep us all away.
Wrap me in your silver lining.

Torn between the roots of earth and the sky,
I left my heart behind, and I'm so far from home.

The weight is pulling me down.
In your circles I am spinning.
In your circles I'll wait forever.

Lost control, my hands grip the wheel,
but I can't see where the road is leading.
Please hold on dear, I know you're worried,
counting down the days till you remember.

Torn between the roots of earth and the sky,
I left my heart behind, and I'm so far from home.
