Jack Winders - Something to Believe In

There’s a part of me here still holding out for something
There’s another part of me I’m still trying to define
I could try to pit them against each other, see who lasts longer than the other
But I don’t seem to have the strength or time
There’s a face in this crowd that I can’t remember
There’s a fragrance in this air that I won’t forget
There’s a graphite line up on the ceiling
Where I tried to derive myself some meaning
From a big man who made us both feel small
We were running right through to the end of the night
Running in our prime now we’re running out of time
It moves so fast you see, takes a full dose of audacity
And it’s the coming around and coming down to the wire
Fanning the flame and waiting for it to transpire and turn to reason
Give me something to believe in along the way
Well I know sometimes I struggle to decipher
Between the way it really was and the frames that grace these walls
Every little window to the former serves to make my present a little warmer
Holding memories whose presence has long gone
Oh but it’s times like these that really mean the most
‘Cause it’s tough to see who’s by your side if you’re hanging around with ghosts
It’s tough to live the life that you’ve always sought if you can’t advance the plot
And you wind up right where you were before
We were running right through to the end of the night
Running in our prime now we’re running out of time
It moves so fast you see, takes a full dose of audacity
And it’s the coming around and coming down to the wire
Fanning the flame and waiting for it to transpire and turn to reason
Give me something to believe in along the way
