Wanderust Lyrics by The Rumjacks

Hestia

0

You could walk your way to the corner of the map
The world would never feel so small
You'll wonder why you even left this place at all

I spent time wandering the world just to buy myself some time
I spent time trying to believe a lie
And I find the further that we go, the world just feels so small
You'll wonder why you ever left this place at all!

And so I sink a heavy heart into the ocean
I sink a heavy heart into the sea
And the path of getting old has never felt so fucking cold
I sink a heavy heart into the ocean

I've built homes that I couldn't keep, so I burned 'em to the ground
I broke hearts only to be left behind
False hope in a dead dream, livin' like gambler spinning out
You only miss 'em when you keep them in your mind

And so I sink a heavy heart into the ocean
I sink a heavy heart into the sea
And the path of getting old has never felt so fucking cold
I sink a heavy heart into the ocean

I could write a sailor song and sing it at the shore
I could scream another at the sun!
Our tangled vines, I burnt alive and knowing not what for
I would trade a thousand nights for one

And so I sink a heavy heart into the ocean
I sink a heavy heart into the sea
And the path of getting old has never felt so fucking cold
I sink a heavy heart into the ocean

I spent time wandering the world just to buy myself some time
I spent time trying to believe a lie
And I find the further that we go, the world just feels so small
You'll wonder why you ever left this place at all!
