"Wanderust" lyrics

"Wanderust"

You could walk your way to the corners of the map
And the world will never feel so small
You'll wonder why you ever even left this place at all

I spent time wandering the world just to buy myself some time
I spent time trying to believe a lie
And I find the further that we go, the world just feels so small
You'll wonder why you ever left this place at all

And so I sink a heavy heart into the ocean
I sink a heavy heart into the sea
And the path of getting old
Has never felt so fucking cold
I sink a heavy heart into the ocean

I've built homes that I couldn't keep so I burned them to the ground
I broke hearts only to be left behind
False hope in a dead dream livin' like gambler spinning out
You only miss 'em when you keep them in your mind

And so I sink a heavy heart into the ocean
I sink a heavy heart into the sea
And the path of getting old
Has never felt so fucking cold
I sink a heavy heart into the ocean

I could write a sailor song and sing it at the shore
I could scream another at the sun
Our tangled vines, I burnt alive and knowing not what for
I would trade a thousand nights for one

And so I sink a heavy heart into the ocean
I sink a heavy heart into the sea
And the path of getting old
Has never felt so fucking cold
I sink a heavy heart into the ocean

I spent time wandering the world just to buy myself some time
I spent time trying to believe a lie
And I find the further that we go, the world just feels so small
You'll wonder why you ever left this place at all
