Hazy Skyscraper

Travelling light's how it usually goes

Mind open wide with the heart open closed

Start at the bottom but time only knows

Unravel the tale of the world that I chose

Seek an answer, in an infinite skyline, promising refrain

But the meaning tends to vanish when it's me, myself and I again

I don't complain about it, I just don't have the time, half the time

Wondering whether the weather will give me some sunshine

Reaching outward, for a lifeline that I won't find in this lifetime

Descending to a dystopia created in my mind

'Cause it's not fine, and it hasn't been for a while now

It feels like a struggle to smile now

Like is anything really worthwhile, how can it be?

Trial and error kinda lifestyle that I lead leaving me high and dry

Can smile with basically anyone

But the riddle's in who I can frown beside

My chaotic good alliance forgets about a revelation

Solitary confinement in a wet and crowded station

Just the faded light within the dark

Of life inside quotation marks

Maybe something's missing in this overcast heart

I'm always reaching out, shying away

Talking like you gotta stay

Better keep it just me

It's better that way, trust me

Despite my distorted and selfish heart

Thinking you and I could be alike so why be apart?

I figure let's be (let's be), lonely (lonely)

Together 'til the weather clears up, that's enough

Like hazy skyscrapers fade into the sky

空に消えたい side by side, gonna leave it all behind

Broken heart was blinded by your beautiful mind

And even if I could rewind it, think I'll likely wind up lying

In a desperate kinda silence, deep inside of this soul

To where my heart is, where the darkness tends to swallow me hole

We're told to smile for those, we feel like we owe it

Concealing happiness, never show it

Get into character, everyone's watching

Staring, comparing there's no sign of stopping

I'm dead on my feet, but I'm also dead set on not dropping

But someone explain why I wish everyone would stop talking

Better start walking

If today is the day I don't wanna pretend, I accept that

We forget being human is never a setback

Staying true to yourself, don't regret that

A weakness is strength, I respect that

Speaking up is impossible, nobody gets that

Wanna spell it out with the melody?

Keep on telling myself it'll turn into something

Burning inside as I'm learning this life

Is eternally searching for anyone else who can say that they felt that

My sense of myself has me held back

Continue chasing that reflection of my innermost pain

Within the weary smile of someone else I'd thought was the same

I'm always reaching out, shying away

Talking like you gotta stay

Better keep it just me

It's better that way trust me

Despite my distorted and selfish heart

Thinking you and I could be alike so why be apart

I figure let's be (let's be), lonely (lonely)

Together 'til the weather clears up, that's enough

Like hazy skyscrapers fade into the sky

空に消えたい side by side, gonna leave it all behind

Reaching out, shying away

Talking like you gotta stay

Better keep it just me

It's better that way, trust me

Despite my distorted and selfish heart

Really you and I are not alike so let's keep apart

I'll kick it, just me (just me) lonely (lonely)

Forever 'cause whenever I stop and I look in your eyes

I realise that you just exist within my mind

I'm just a hazy skyscraper, fade into the sky

Be like a hazy skyscraper, fade into the sky

Forever hazy skyscrapers, fade into the sky

Hazy skyscraper, really there's no place I belong
