"A War With Time" lyrics

I don't remember the timeline
Just December and the eastern skyline
It was just my time to go
It wasn't even a cold night
Disappointed in the northern nights, I
I always thought there'd be snow
Four hundred people on a broken wheel
When the plane touched down in a concrete minefield
I guess we all made it out okay
Following the streets to a sliver of blue
You can lose the sky and it can lose you too
But you get a little lost to find your way

I'm living a war with time
I could still reach out and touch you and I
Wish I didn't know the things I know
I'm standing in an open door
None of it was overrated and I
Never gonna wanna let you go
But I want you to go
Don't even ask me, just go

I don't remember the faces
Just the anger and the haunted places
So alive, I could taste it on the rain
Even the roaches come from somewhere
Leaving a stain where the angels fell
In a city where no one knows your name

I'm living a war with time
I could still reach out and touch you and I
Wish I didn't know the things I know
I'm standing in an open door
None of it was overrated and I
Never gonna wanna let you go
But I want you to go
Don't even ask me, just go

Hold their eyes, make sure they know
Stand your ground but see the soul
Beneath the pain and broken home
With every drop of rain and bone
Square your shoulders, turn to stone
Slowly shake your head for no
When you find yourself alone
Retrace your steps and come back home

I'm living a war with time
I could still reach out and touch you and I
Wish I didn't know the things I know
I'm standing in an open door
None of it was overrated and I
Never gonna wanna let you go
But I want you to go
I want you to go (I know your want me to)
I want you to go
I want you to go
Don't even ask me, just go
