Another Timeline from RESTORE by The Y Axes

Sun leaks in through my windowpane 
But this heat doesn’t feel the same 
Wind rattling through my ribcage 
A vacant heart and an occupied gaze 

Progress in unlearning 
All the rules you used to know 
Carved in trees and heavier than stone 
But you’ll always be the same to me 
And all the things we used to do 
In another timeline when it was me and you 

On your hardwood floor pulling the demons from our chests 
Never knowing they could be all that’s left 
Or that your fear can be your friend when you’re on your own 
Cuz even when you’re by yourself you’ll never be alone 
And there’s 

And all that you’ve got 
Are circular thoughts 
Keeping me up 
I wind up depending 
On all these hopes inside my head 
I wind up drowning deep in them 
And you struggle and shout 
Your lungs filled with doubt 
I’m not gonna find my way out 
I’m not gonna find my way out 

On your fire escape steps squinting into a crowded sky 
The constellations lit by satellites 
And I tried to put it down in words 
My thoughts are a small town 
And you’re a universe
