Fate
Gravel Switch Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Am I searching for the chance or has it already pasted
Is the light burning dim on the smile that keeps me strong
I can feel this fading away guess I knew it all along
And now I'm drifting and falling and slipping farther away
Believing conceiving this sweet daze
And i know I can't control our fate
And I'm wondering if i've waited to late
I can feel that inside your mind I'm standing behind someone else
I don't understand your signs am I reading them the wrong way
Guess I'm just wasting my time in this fable I live everyday
And now I'm drifting and falling and slipping farther away
Believing conceiving this sweet daze
And i know I can't control our fate
And I'm wondering if i've waited to late
And now I'm drifting and falling and slipping farther away
Believing conceiving this sweet daze
And i know I can't control our fate
And I'm wondering if i've waited to late
