This Glass Embrace — Chase the Horizon lyrics

Lyrics

You said, «If there is something that I miss
More than those high school summers
I don’t know what it is.»
And I believe you
(No I can’t argue.)
Convenience stores have never felt the same since then
But don’t think of that
Because those summers
Are gone and gone and gone
And they’re not coming back
So don’t do this
(Please don’t go)
Don’t be another victim to the lure of distance
The lie that somewhere new can equal starting over
When a different town is just a different place
In which to feel the same
(«It is futile, you can never--»
«You lie, you lie» he cried, and ran on.)
It’s not because we want to
It’s because we have to
It’s not because we want to
It’s because we have to
It’s not because we want to
It’s because we have to
It’s not as easy as they always made it seem
You lie
You lie
You lie your head on mine
And as your voice is breaking
You whisper, «Just tell me that it will be okay…»
So sleep
Love, sleep
Wait for daybreak
Wait for morning
So sleep
Love, sleep
Wait for morning
Wait for me
So, sleep… love, sleep
Listen: it’s not exactly what it seems
No, nothing’s ever what it seems
Wait for daybreak, wait for morning
So, sleep… love, sleep
Listen: it’s not exactly what it seems
No, nothing’s ever what it seems
Wait for morning, wait for me
Just please, don’t ever not believe
