Out of Reach

This home will be the life and death of me,
I was blind to the destiny awaiting me here.
You found me in this pristine wilderness
But we can’t escape together
It’s all we have left.

We’re just swimming in a goldfish bowl,
Too ignorant to see
That freedom is always a little out of reach.

You told me I should live my life
But I go no further than the bars of this cage.
Talents dissipated, shattered dreams,
When we thought it began it was already over.
Life has already passed us by.

We’re just swimming in a goldfish bowl,
Too ignorant to see
That freedom is always a little out of reach.

Stay with me.
Guide me through.
As all lights die down they leave us in the dark.
Will we one day realise who we are?
