paroles de chanson In Lieu of the Break - Jon Simpson

Annaleise says with a sigh on her lips
"This season has taken its toll
I've been locked in a battle of wills
With the world in a war for control
See, all this time I've wanted to be
Someone i haven't been yet
And I don't remember all that I've learned
But I hope that I never forget

"'As far as I can see'
Is not so far, but I'm trying to be
Just a bit more wide awake
To give all this day's going to take
To bend now in lieu of the break"

Annaleise says, "It's hard to explain
And I don't quite understand why
But the moment I made the choice to let go
Was the moment I grabbed onto life
There've been too many years when my best-laid plans have
Only brought my dreams to the ground
So I won't go back to the way things have been
Or the lies that were holding me down

"'As far as I can see'
Is not so far, but I'm trying to be
Just a bit more wide awake
To give all this day's going to take
To bend now in lieu of the break"

"There is so much more than what I've settled for
And I can't ignore this unrest screaming in me anymore, though...

"'As far as I can see'
Is not so far, but I'm trying to be
Just a bit more wide awake
To give all this day's going to take
To cast off the crooked and fake
To rest in the rhythm of ache
To bend now in lieu of the break"
