A little closer

We forget
we fall and we're full of regret
you can say what you want when your heart is controlled by your head

I felt so low
winded by a softened blow
but I won't even think about it
because it always gets better with time

You wake up one day and you don't recognize your face
and home is a place that feels so far away
I felt like I lost myself, but I lost my place
so I'll keep walking and I'll get a little closer every day

You're a silhouette
you fail and feel too upset
though I'm not sure what it is you'd expect
Just a shape I haven't colored in yet

I felt so slow
guided by a nameless glow
and a fortune I knew long ago
in a field full of flightless crows

You wake up one day and you don't recognize your face
and home is a place that feels so far away
I felt like I lost myself, I just lost my place
so I'll keep walking and I'll get a little closer every day
