Fighting Gravity - Lost Our Way lyrics

When we joined up you could see the northern lights Dancing our future in the sky Green, tangerine and colors no one's ever seen To us it would never die Someone once said every child begins the world And stumbles toward their crown Some will rise to the call Some will end up with it all Some the river it pulls them down And we will not bow to a crowded generation That we followed to long thinking we were so wrong And I won't be sleeping till the morning comes Kiss me and i'll be safe And they say we've made it to a golden place But I think that we've lost our way So I took a photograph of my hometown Buried it with my name Swore to the road a sort of beat redemption code And stepped out the way I came And we will not bow to a violent generation That we followed to long think we were so wrong I will follow the water line Till I reach higher ground I will swallow the sound Of a million voices holding me down And the water will follow the blood of Cain We'll claw our way through the driving rain And I won't look back on the miles of pain We'll carry the stone through the driving rain
