lyrics

You get up
And go down
You put water on the stove
You watch it boil
You drift away

So you see
How you left
Some friends that you call home
You take your back, you take your leave

So when you
Took off
Did you know you gonna change
You changed for good
You changed at all

All of these flashlights
All of these bright eyes
Being here takes you now further from where you’ve always been
And you just feel
And you just think
And you try not to be at any other place

You get back
Nothing’s changed
But yourself
Or that’s what you keep trying to tell yourself

So what is next
A poor excuse
To go back
Pick up from where you’ve left and

When you finally get there
Will it really be where
You can lie down and rest without think of the demons in your head
Or will you run
Or will you see
Or will you stop the old and ever in between

Stay afloat
Change this place
Make it home

Not wasting up
All these empty days
All these sleepless nights
You’ve been growing thin for years
You feel your heartbeat
A little softer here
A little harder there
A little harder

No more night outside of Bangkok
No more night outside of Bangkok
You still escape
No more night outside of Bangkok
From yourself
No more night outside of Bangkok
Everytime
No more night
You board a plane
No more night
You still escape
No more night
From yourself
No more night
Everytime
No more night
You are my anchor
