Like Royals - Driftwood lyrics

[Verse 1] I was never the kid to speak aloud I lacked the courage but maybe you'll hear me now Always the boy who cried wolf Now hear my howl louder than they ever could [Pre-Chorus] So take it back Let's take it back To a better time where I was fine Trade your sorrows, your sadness and I'll show you mine [Chorus] So wherever you are I wish you grace Just know I look back with a smile on my face It's clear it's time for me to close this door I'll find my solace in pathetic metaphors [Verse 2] I hope I hope you're safe And I hope that the lights will guide you To what you desire [Chorus 2] With every single breath I hope it fuels your fire So please believe me, you know I'm not a liar And if you're looking for affection or a path to choose You'll find it in the chest of someone I once knew (My heart, my sleeve) Wearing my heart on my sleeve Is never as easy as you make it out to believe [Verse 3] So wherever you are Cause I'll be there waiting patiently With memories close at hand These words are aching in my chest So help me find a way [Pre-Chorus 2] My hope, my dreams My everything It's all slipping away Slowly slipping away [Chorus 3] Now that I know where you are, you're dressed in lace I look up smiling with a teardrop down my face It's clear it's time for me to close this door I found my solace knowing I helped you soar
