Latency Lyrics by Sidelines

Sidelines/Lowlight

2014

Feeling lost, feeling hopeless about the things that could’ve been
But lately I’ve been thinking I won't desecrate myself
If you tried a little harder, to see more than just this part of me
We might regret it when we’re older, but right now it just feels like

We all need some time to think on our own
I wish you’d stand up and admit you were wrong

Another line to what could’ve been
We were just so close we almost held it in our hands
This complicated mess left you right there, waiting for it
And I hope that you’ll understand, this will never come between me and my plans
But I can’t predict that much from here

Thinking back to the time you asked me to open up my mind and let go
Now these feelings are stronger than ever, polluting all my fears

(So I’ll go, sail back home, on my own)
There’s no point hiding the truth when all it does is torture you
I’m not cut out for this and I never will be
I might be gone for now but I hope you’ll realise
You’ll never see the back of me

We all need some time to think on our own
I wish you’d stand up and admit you were wrong

Another line to what could’ve been
We were just so close we almost held it in our hands
This complicated mess left you right there, waiting for it
And I hope that you’ll understand, this will never come between me and my plans
But I can’t predict that much from here

There’s nothing left here no shadows, hope left at the gallows
Disperse and elude all, persistence is fatal

Complicated by real talk, avoided and restless
Lest we forget all the lessons that we’re taught
Just remember to move on
