Breakthrough Lyrics by Modernity Leave

peppermint

2021

You weren't always like this
I remember days back when we were sun-kissed kids
Sneaking into your parents’ car
We held our breaths just to see how far we could get

We would never be apart
I like to think your mom always knew it from the start
Until your dad got a new job
And your family moved real far away

It only hurt when I missed you
I don't know if you felt the same way that I do
You only cried when you said goodbye
But you were happy to move on with your life

We never really talked since then
I figured you had gone and found new friends
What's not to like in a guy like you
You were the one who got me to see the view

But now it’s your turn
You tell me all the times that life has burned you out
You say that it's of no concern
You just wish that you were never even born

You know I wish that
I could take away your pain
I've been through it before
You don't have to explain

It doesn't matter how far you get
You'll always be my friend
I could have lost you forever
It isn't happening again

I might be lying to myself
But I'm seeing a light in you
That adolescence inside of you
I wanna shield you from the view
I know, I know life can breakthrough

I might be lying to myself
But I’m seeing a light in you

I might be lying to myself
But I’m seeing a light in you
That adolescence inside of you
I wanna shield you from the view
I know, I know life can breakthrough to you

Feeling that weight inside of you
Feeling nothing is tangible
You'll only feel it when you’re halfway through
'Till I breakthrough to you
