Atlas Genius - Refugees lyrics

Roads of gold are forever dulled Taking stock of what you lost and what you want to take Roads of time will be straight again If we stop we can see ahead The mountains desecrate So as we caught ourselves astray We're floating on our own Hoping to reach tomorrow These ghosts of ours, we sent away Like refugees, nowhere to stay A carousel of fallen days Like refugees, nowhere to stay Tried to cross at the quiet edge Fell asleep at the shallow end The hours turn to grey I want to feel like you meant it I want to think that we held it all As the fever starts to take So as we caught ourselves astray We're floating on our own Hoping to reach tomorrow These ghosts of ours, we sent away Like refugees, nowhere to stay A carousel of fallen days Like refugees, nowhere to stay I put my thoughts through a metal sift To separate my truth and illusion And what I find I will forgive 'Cause there aren't really any solutions You said you felt so alive right at the summer's edge This moment never resolves 'cause there is no end These ghosts of ours we sent away Like refugees, nowhere to stay A carousel of fallen days Like refugees, nowhere to stay This road is unknown We let go of these ghosts This road is unknown We let go of these ghosts This road is unknown We let go of these ghosts This road is unknown We let go of these ghosts
