Stray - Chewie

Everything moves faster nowadays

Nothing I’ve grown to love can stay

So I will commit them to memory

I will keep them deep inside my chest

A place where time cannot protest

I will visit every single day

No, that’s not what I meant to say

My words came out the wrong way

Now I can’t take them back, but it’s true

Things have been turned around just when

I thought that I had figured it all out

Because I know

Everything moves faster nowadays

Nothing I’ve grown to love can stay

So I will commit them to memory

I will keep them deep inside my chest

A place where time cannot protest

I will visit every single day

Oh, it was simpler when I was young

I was convinced of who I was

And all the clocks ticked slower

But is it true, that the more you know

Leads to the less that you want to know?

The mask has slipped and now it’s on the floor

Because I know

Everything moves faster nowadays

Nothing I’ve grown to love can stay

So I will commit them to memory

I will keep them deep inside my chest

A place where time cannot protest

I will visit every single day

As the light begins to fade

My voice echoes inside the home I’ve made

And I can’t help but feel afraid that this is not

The place from which I’ve strayed

From which I’ve strayed

Everything moves faster nowadays

Nothing I’ve grown to love can stay

So I will commit them to memory

I will keep them deep inside my chest

A place where time cannot protest

I will visit every single day
