lyrics

[Verse ​1]
So when I find out all of the lies
that refined our pull from each other
You can climb out your hole
Just in time to build a lighthouse
And pray for spark to notice

[Pre-Chorus]
But if you don’t shine with something different
I don’t care what’s real

[Chorus]
I am so afraid
Of being more than indifferent
And I can find my own way
I need more, need significance

And you won’t take that from me

[Verse ​2]
You swear I’ve lost my mind now
But I can see it from your eyes out
The cold, the vacancy, you checked out
You say you killed your former self
How could you think I wouldn’t pull you out

‘Cause I’m feeling nothing from you
Feeling nothing from the safe old “I don’t care” lie
And I’m feeling nothing from you
Fighting hard to change and still you set me aside

[Chorus]
I am so afraid
Of being more than indifferent
And I can find my own way
I need more, need significance

And you won’t take that from me
‘Cause I don’t fly the white easily

[Outro]
I see light that’s fading slowly
Can you find your flame?
I feel life that’s long forgotten
Help me feel the pain

[Refrain]
How long? How long?
(Sympathy, empathy, memory, energy, chasing you, wait for me)
(I see light that’s fading slowly)

How long? How long?
(Sympathy, empathy, memory, energy, chasing you, wait for me)
(Can you find your flame?)

about

The Dawn Retreat image

The Dawn Retreat Aledo, Illinois

The Dawn Retreat is the musical equivalent of a superhero team-up, but with more guitars and slightly less spandex. Their vocalist is like the lovechild of Burt McCraken and Michael Jackson. The guitarist's riffs are so catchy, he's still in quarantine. The bassist's grooves are so funky, you'll need a bath. And the drummer's beats are so deadly, he's wanted in three states. ... more
