Ending this EP, The Cycle moves through several feelings and refers back to the opening just as a dream might have a beginning and end.It explores endings throughout, thinking about wanting to hold on to family and let them guide you through life.
lyrics
Something tells me I'll regret this love,
It's a heartache that you couldn't make up.
If it hangs over me for half as long, I'm giving up.
I've waited long enough to feel at home,
But now this pressure just won't leave me alone,
And I'm bowing down to it for as long as I'll hold.
I don't wanna be alone without this feeling,
I gotta get out.
Stay forever young and help me to see,
Eternity's not long enough for you and me.
You can take my lungs if they help you to breathe.
You can take all of me.
Count the minutes into hours, and the hours into moments,
So you'll never forget.
I'll board the boat to lead me back there, to where you rest.
And i'll find no one else there.
Stay forever young and help me to see,
Eternity's not long enough for you and me.
You can take my lungs if they help you to breathe,
You can take all of me.
Neverending downward spiral, waiting out for your arrival,
And we can begin the Cycle over again...
