The Detail

Caught my mind late last night
Always embellishing the detail
Ought to know, better though
Why do I do this to myself?
I'm such a mess
Oh well, I guess
Solace is everything

Morning calls for clearer thoughts
Cleaning the archive of all meaning
Let the breeze from the sea
Take the anxiety that I know
When my heart goes cannot see straight
All the feelings make it go blurry
And it's missing all the detail

Come now, regain some control
What is tomorrow in the first place?
How then can we still pretend
That we know?

No surprise, I'm alive, I'm alive
And if I fall through your fingers
That's alright, that's alright, that's alright
'Cause I'm alive, I'm alive

And if I fall through your fingers
That's alright, that's alright, that's all
I know where your heart goes
When you're lonely and you can't see
It's far too early to be hurting
From a future so uncertain

Come now, regain some control
What is tomorrow in the first place?
How then can we still pretend
That we know?
Solace is everything
