lyrics

I’ve been through incredible lengths
to get here

Every choice I made derived of this

Surrounded in hypotheticals
revolving in content
losing all I had
was never my intent

Misused words and secret valentines
submersed beyond submission
in golden water lines

Reaching for an answer
to pull me to the top
held by an anchor tied in figure eights
without a single knot

It’s all in my head

Girl in red so cool
I’d drive all night to get to you

Something changed the day we met
the life I had I’d soon forget
I knew it was you
The day we met

And on that day I saw my fate
Face to face
a love so selfless
The kind that keeps you awake

I never want to sleep again
I did enough
I’ve had it rough
I know I’m home
I’m only my best when I’m with you

If I had known, I’d do it again

Not a fan of the new album but this Polaris album is just what I love about metalcore. Saw them live in CH last year and on stage they are amazing. If you're new to Polaris (doubt it) start here ! sachavonkarl74
