lyrics

Forty thousand miles, your feet are bleeding
It’s been a long, long while since you’ve heard a friendly greeting
Something honest, something pure
You were once open, you were once sure

And like a habit that liked you, so stayed
You learned just how to keep all of the yearning away
One day you woke up in the cold November light
Packed your things, walked away, left it all behind

But I’ve been feeling it
Like a murmur under my skin
Sirens calling me back to shore
And I can hear the thumping
Of ghost feet on the ground
I may never sing again
But I can’t seem to leave the sound

You’ll never amount to much, you’re not worth a lot
I’m my own worst nightmare, I’m the only friend I’ve ever got
I used to think I knew the way
Used to believe in my own plans
Suddenly everything just changed
And I can’t see it, from where I stand

When everything is slipping through your fingers like sand
You’re tired and you’re lonely and you just don’t understand
You could throw your chest aboard and let it sink
For the tide to wash away, pages fading into ink

But I’ve been feeling it
Like a murmur under my skin
Sirens calling me back to shore
And I can hear the thumping
Of ghost feet on the ground
I may never sing again
But I can’t seem to leave the sound

Ooh ah
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ah
Ooh ah
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ah
Ahh ahh ahh ahh
Ooh ah
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ah

And I’ve been sleeping
On all of my dreams
But nothing is better
Than bursting at the seams
Burning fire, knee deep in failure
In my reflection stands a stranger

But I’ve been feeling it
Like a murmur under my skin
Sirens calling me back to shore
And I can hear the thumping
Of ghost feet on the ground
I may never sing again
But I can’t seem to leave the sound
