Borrowed View

INTRO

Another day, another goodbye,

Another truth we dress in lies.

We hold so tight, we lose it all,

Then wonder why the leaves must fall.

VERSE ONE

We build our homes on shifting sand,

Demand forever from a passing hand.

We count the wounds, replay the blame,

As if tomorrow will remember names.

Why wound the hearts that once felt home?

Why leave each other lost alone?

The years move on, the clocks don't care,

Will all this hurt be waiting there?

PRE-CHORUS

What are we holding when all things end?

Why break the hearts we swore to mend?

Why let old wounds decide our view,

Why let our hearts forget what's true?

CHORUS

We're only passing through the blue,

Like fading stars the night outgrew.

Why break the hearts we hold so dear,

When none of us can stay right here?

Let the rain fall, let it go,

What can we keep that time won't own?

If life is just a borrowed view,

Why let our hearts forget what's true?

DROP

Let it go...

Let it go...

We're passing through,

We're passing through.

VERSE TWO

We turn a silence to a crime,

Then waste a lifetime buying time.

We let our pride decide who's wrong,

And lose the ones who kept us strong.

One day, these rooms will lose our sound,

Will any trace of us be found?

The world will turn, the sun will rise,

Who'll remember our last goodbyes?

PRE-CHORUS

Why keep the words we can't unsay?

Why let our love decay this way?

When every road leads out of view,

Why let our hearts forget what's true?

CHORUS

We're only passing through the blue,

Like fading stars the night outgrew.

Why break the hearts we hold so dear,

When none of us can stay right here?

Let the rain fall, let it go,

What can we keep that time won't own?

If life is just a borrowed view,

Why let our hearts forget what's true?

BRIDGE

Maybe the answer isn't winning,

Or finding who's at fault.

Could peace begin the moment

We stop putting love on trial?

When all our years dissolve like tears,

What stays when no one's here?

When all is gone, what will we hold?

A heart we healed, or one left cold?

FINAL CHORUS

We're only passing through the blue,

With fragile hearts and skies we knew.

Why waste the little time we own,

Making strangers of our own?

Let the rain fall, let it go,

Love the ones you cannot hold.

If all we are is passing through,

Why let our hearts forget what's true?

OUTRO

Another day, another goodbye,

The world moves on beneath the sky.

No final word, no debt to pay,

Just passing through...

Then fading away.
