Lay the glass to Bend the light I Met a girl some- Place online and She was the one My year nine sweetheart She was always On my mind I Fell in love for A little while but I’ve never been to America Stacy is out of reach Stacy is out of reach Stacy is hiding Just beyond the sky Stacy is out of reach Stacy is out of reach Stacy is hiding Just beyond the sky Went to church to Bend the light and I kept quiet All the thoughts like If god is real She didn’t say that Leave them now or Stay forever Girls and girls will Sin together So I never told them ‘Bout Stacy And I will be out of reach I will be out of reach I will be hiding Just beyond the sky And I will be out of reach I will be out of reach I will be hiding Just beyond the sky I will be out of reach I will be out of reach

How did we get this far With poison in our blood We are fragile no more It only strengthens us And it’s alright when it’s only a dream With lights to burn the dark away We’ve got a long way We’ve got a long way We’ve got a long way to go yet We’ve got a long way We’ve got a long way We’ve got a long way to go And I am filled with wonder For things I cannot have Gravity and hunger They were built to last But it’s okay when you’re here with me Tear down the walls and start anew We’ve got a long way We’ve got a long way We’ve got a long way to go yet We’ve got a long way We’ve got a long way We’ve got a long way to go We’ve got a long way We’ve got a long way We’ve got a long way to go yet We’ve got a long way We’ve got a long way We’ve got a long way to go

I’m tired of waiting But I will wait forever Stuck in this hourglass The times have me possessed And these dreams of growing up I tell myself I’ll never To walk that threshold And peer across the edge And these four walls Don’t have to hold me But what’s outside for me That isn’t here So I will stay here Amongst the spiders Watching the cobwebs Stretched across the ceiling Loose threads and artefact Collecting specks of dust And this shelf of picture books That mum will not let go of She makes it heavy And slant towards the ground And these four walls Won’t hold much longer My life begins soon Away from here Where there is music Where there is meaning I’ll treat myself now I’ll treat myself now I’ll treat myself now I’ll treat myself now I’ll treat myself now To all the things I wanted I’ll live on city blocks And dine on cheese and wine Fill my life with strangers And try to live forever I will forget you Just give me time Just give me time

Is this the way the way it has to be ‘Cos that’s a way a way that’s not for me Sit tight and know When feelings don’t show That that’s the way the way the way it is Why don’t we talk Anymore I have to say to say my dear I’m far away away from here No need to hide I’m here by your side But that’s a lie A lie I know Why don’t we talk Anymore Why don’t we talk Anymore And why don’t we feel Like we did some time ago Exposure to light Gives a lover someone to blame Maybe we wanted that Maybe we wanted that Is this the way The way the way it ends
