"The Wheel" lyrics

"The Wheel"

It's just a fact
The cuts get stacked
I stumbled through
It's all I knew
I can't turn back
I've come too far
This is my chance
For something new, new, new

But how many times
Can you push on the mind
Before the mind pushes you?

Sometimes you can find
In the corners of minds
The greatest of views

I left my track
The wind burns back
I pushed on through
The water knew
I can't turn back
This is no drill
This is my chance for something new, new, new

But how many times can you push on the mind
Before the mind pushes you?
And I wouldn't ask, but the pain of the past
Keeps an eye on me too

When you're looking out, looking out, looking out
Looking out, looking out, looking out, looking out
For the lightness in you

When you're looking out, looking out, looking out
Looking out, looking out, you'll find
There's a lightness in you
Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah

But there's part of me that I can't explain
It comes from my second brain
It can make friends with pain, it can make friends
It sits inside, on the edge of sane
Sucks on the dopamine
It can make friends with pain
It can make friends with pain

It's just that I know this game
And baby, I'm noticing
That time might be the only thing
That I cannot replace
And if there's sight of it there to find
How can I waste more time
Now that I know?

How many times does it take to define
All the greatness in you?
And I wouldn't ask, but the pain of the past
Keeps an eye on me too

'Cause life's no hack
The steepest track
Is up on you
And the water's high, high, high
You can't turn back
This is no drill
This is your chance
For something new, new, new

But how many times can you push on the mind
Before the mind pushes you?
Sometimes you can find in the corners of minds
The greatest of views

'Cause life's no hack
The steepest track
Is up on you
And the water's high, high, high
You can't turn back
This is no drill
This is your chance
For something new, new, new

But how many times can you push on the mind
Before the mind pushes you?
Sometimes you can find in the corners of minds
The greatest of views

When you're looking out, looking out, looking out
Looking out, looking out, looking out, looking out
For the lightness in you

When you're looking out, looking out, looking out
Looking out, looking out, you'll find
There's a lightness in you

When you're looking out, looking out, looking out
Looking out, looking out, looking out, looking out
For the lightness in you

When you're looking out, looking out, looking out
Looking out, looking out, you'll find
There's a lightness in you
