The Cave Lyrics by Stand Still (NY)

A Practice in Patience - EP

2021

And I can’t seem to remember
Where I’ve been and where to go
All my life I’ve used a compass
But now the Earth is shifting poles
I followed you like a star
Until the sky was turning grey
So you lead me to the fire
To huddle up in Plato’s cave
A million times
I’ve counted my blessings
But now nothing's adding up
Mesmerized
My knees are tucked into my chest
And it’s about time that I woke up
Your hands create the figures
That I’m staring at all day
They shapeshift into reality
Whеre I don’t get much of a say
My nightmares and worst fеars
All on display
And deep inside
I want to break away
A million times
I’ve counted my blessings
But now nothing's adding up
Mesmerized
My knees are tucked into my chest
And it’s about time that I woke up
This is the moment I’ve been waiting for
Like a lion in a cage I’ll finally bite the hand that feeds me
You pull the strings, but I’ve been sharpening my blade
Waiting for the day you look away
My eyes are burning and I’m sick of hopeful yearning
But if I make it out I won’t know where to go
If I make it out I won’t know where to go
