(music/lyrics by Aries)
I keep my feet close to the ground
To be sure of my step
And I keep my head in my pocket
That I won't feel inept
Blankets pull up around my neck
Revealing my fear
To get involved is to have resolved
That trust is my career
But it's too close to summer
To draw foregone conclusions
And it's too far from summer
To rethink joyful confusions
All thoughts that I've had
Are coming for me now
And all thoughts that have had me
Will remember me somehow
The hardest part seems like it's gone
The tension lingers, without dissolving soon But the time and happiness keep growing
As we kill the elephant in the room
But it's too far from winter
For a flawless future prediction
And it's too close to winter
To depict our love as fiction
Are coming for me now
And all thoughts that have had me
Will remember me somehow
I keep my feet close to the ground
So I'm falling without the fall
