Lyrics

Intro

Verse 1

I used to chase the horizon

Run until my lungs gave way

Every dream felt like a lifeline

Every night another escape

I thought love was something fragile

Something I could lose too soon

Then you arrived without a warning

And rearranged the room

Pre-Chorus

Now the world turns slower

And somehow means more

Chorus

I spent my youth with closed fists

Holding on to everything

Now I stand with open hands

And watch the future sing

Every fear falls from my shoulders

Every doubt loses its sting

I spent my youth with closed fists

Now I stand with open hands

And watch the future sing

Verse 2

You don't know the weight you're lifting

Just by reaching for my name

You make ordinary moments

Feel like fireworks in rain

And one day you'll walk beyond me

Find your own road through the dark

But you'll always be the reason

There's a light inside my heart

Pre-Chorus

Now the years move faster

But I don't mind at all

Chorus

I spent my youth with closed fists

Holding on to everything

Now I stand with open hands

And watch the future sing

Every fear falls from my shoulders

Every doubt loses its sting

I spent my youth with closed fists

Now I stand with open hands

And watch the future sing

Bridge

The world will break and mend you

The way it did for me

But I hope you always carry

A little of this peace

Instrumental

Chorus

I spent my youth with closed fists

Holding on to everything

Now I stand with open hands

And watch the future sing

Every fear falls from my shoulders

Every doubt loses its sting

I spent my youth with closed fists

Now I stand with open hands

And watch the future sing

Outro

Open hands

Open heart

You were the answer from the start

Open hands

Open hands

And watch the future sing...
