Skinny Atlas - Landmarks lyrics

[Hook: Dylan & Regina] I want you to be my landmark Go on and guide me home I've been lost long for miles ago If we get landlocked, then our tired souls Won't sail away Before we're gone [Verse 1: Dylan] If we've all moved on By the time summer's gone Then I might have to rewrite this story in my palms The wind was blowing calm then I settled and it shook me, but I paid no mind Stay awake until the day goes quiet I spent the rest of the weekend getting high off old photographs Burning those memories that hold us back Somewhere in our plotline We were on a folded path I had not forgotten I'm the loneliest kind And I just don't know Why This cold has gotta go to my mind The world is so big But it feels so small When I try to fit my soul inside [Verse 2: Dylan & Regina] If we're not dead by the time summer ends Then I might have to rewrite my story again I saw it from a window in a city where they race their lives Wait forever let the days tear by I've got a bad habit of holding onto what has finished When I came back from college all my friends smoked cigarettes And I was just to packing my things too soon Yeah you can't control the roads you choose But perhaps we could pretend all our scars are invisible tattoos And decorate our bodies with the bad things we've been through I knew we could make it on the ride home From the concert with the lights along the silos [Verse 3: Dylan] Yeah and if we don't die then it's probably not our time So I might have to rewrite this chapter in our lives It took a lot out of me I hadn't been home It's cliché but the winter of this past year was cold Yeah I'm only nineteen but my mind is older And when things got for real my warm heart turned colder Now the future's in an emptiness, a place called mine I can mark but can't erase those times Sick of One too many months spent living in the darkness One too many friends gone lifted on their starships All of us dependent on some wish upon a star sh** Just like you I've been writing just to lift us through a hardship [Verse 4: Dylan & Regina] It's something that I've got in my bones I said I'm more than a skeleton I honestly know That if this life might swallow me whole Then I'll be hungry for somebody to believe in me Is it ironic that the loneliness is eating me? I don't think I'll pay no mind Keep your warm heart closer than the rays that light your way Saying If we're not dead by the time summer ends Then I might have to rewrite my story in pen And I I just don't know why Just don't know just don't know just don't know Why This world is so big But it feels so small When we go to fit our souls inside [Hook]
