Inside Out
Above the Clouds Lyrics

Our beating hearts pounding out of our chests
Our hearts are racing and feeling overwhelmed

Is this what you want?
Asking if the desired outcome is being achieved

Can you just take a closer look
Asking to analyze the situation more carefully

At the fact that we're lost in this land of dreams
Realizing that we are immersed in a dreamland and need direction

I've drowned myself one too many times in the poison that consumers you
Having consumed the toxic persona of the other person too many times

I've lied to myself one too many times of the future that lies ahead
Having deceived oneself about the realistic future ahead

You've searched for far too long
Having looked for too long without finding what they want

With no way to comprehend
Unable to understand the situation clearly

What it is that you want
Questioning what is truly desired

But I know that this is not the end
Having faith that there is more to come

Falling asleep is my only escape
Sleeping is the only way to get away from current troubles

From this chaos inside my mind
Referring to the inner turmoil of thoughts and emotions

Living in this dream is where I wanna be
Preferring to stay in dreamland

Cause within my dreams I'm haunting you
The other person lingers in the dreams

Though all of the time that's passed I still want you with me
After all the time that has passed, the desire to be with the other person remains

Here in my arms where you belong
Wanting the other person close and feeling the sense of belonging

Cause everyone can take you apart
There are others who can bring the other person down easily

But if you let me inside your heart
Asking for the opportunity to prove worthiness and earn trust

I'll be the one to put an end to this war
Offering to end the ongoing conflict

We're just a fighting king and queen in this game of power
Metaphorically comparing the status to royalty competing for power

We can rule our own fate but we let the pawns take control
Capable of controlling destiny but seemingly unable to do so

Sending our own fears into the fight may delay the end
Letting fears get in the way of progress

But at the end of it all
When everything is said and done

We'll be the one who's hearts are left in checkmate dreaming and dreaming
In the end, they will be left heartbroken while dreaming of what could have been

Dreaming and dreaming
Continuing to dream of a better outcome

To put an end to this war
Desiring to end the conflict

Inside my mind
The struggles are internal
