Behind

 Put my hopes in the universe and I'm off for the night
Watch my dreams fall from my grip, day to day overwrite
Maybe I was afraid to admit I wanted more
Threw my heart out to sea now its washed up ashore
My life keeps swaying like a tree in the wind
Keeping my eyes closed, I'd rather pretend
Past the point of letting go, I hold onto what ifs
Nothing's written in stone my whole world is adrift
You could reach out and steady me any time now
Holding on to more emptiness than my body should allow
Do you ever smile because I cross your mind
Go back and find me, I think I've fallen behind
