"Orbiting" lyrics

"Orbiting"

Will I always be a means to an end?
Refuge taken when the panic sets in
'Cause I offer you a shelter from yourself
When you wish that you could be somebody else

And it all feels so wrong
Was hope the star I wished on all along?

I have been orbiting happiness all this time
As our celestial bodies are intertwined
It's a glory, a gravity I never could find
Is happiness something I will be orbiting all my life?

Your touch is buried in my skin like an axe
Your touch is buried in my skin like an axe
Biting my tongue and then it bit me back
So I hold you close enough to know
That I could lose myself and be all on my own

I have been orbiting happiness all this time
As our celestial bodies are intertwined
It's a glory, a gravity I never could find
Is happiness something I will be orbiting all my life?

Will I bend, or will I break?
Am I misaligned, another flawed design?
Do I love what I've become?
Take the flesh from my soul, forfeit my skin and bones
I will bend until I break
Was it all for nothing?

I have been orbiting happiness all this time
As our celestial bodies are intertwined
It's a glory, a gravity I never could find
Is happiness something I will be orbiting all my life?
