Alex The Astronaut – Split The Sky lyrics

I've been colder
Watching Harry Potter, looking older
Been hoping
I have what it takes to keep rolling
That the rise and the fall of the tide
Won't catch me and wash me aside
If I sit here and watch Harry Potter will I be alright?

When I was little I ran up the hill
Chased cars and fell, Dad didn't think I had much time, much time, much time
And up where I'd climbed and felt so pretty
All the water flowed in from the sea to the city
And I felt my life, my life, my life

But I've been colder
Sitting in my bedroom, looking older
Feeling like I'm underwater
Smiling like a lie
Holding on to it all too tight
I've been hoping
I have what it takes to keep rolling
'Cause I will not stay underwater
I'll walk outside
I'll split the sky
I'll be alright

I remember being seventeen
Drinking cheap wine
Sitting on suburban streets to the galaxy
Feeling everything, we were
The cowboys who threw up in taxis
Feels different being twenty-three
I still throw up and I don't feel like me
Now Curtis is working in Sales
Now say I lost my way a little bit

I've been colder
Sitting in my bedroom, looking older
Feeling like I'm underwater
Smiling like a lie
Holding on to it all too tight
I've been hoping
I have what it takes to keep rolling
'Cause I will not stay underwater
I'll walk outside
I'll split the sky
I'll be alright

Tell all my friends
Tell all my friends

And I've been hopeless
Standing on the edge and looking over
When the night sits heavy as hands on my shoulders
Somewhere I can see a light on
Maybe there's always a light on
Maybe I've held on some time and I just need to
Cry

Maybe life is in colours on top of each other
It goes and it stops
It all comes at once
It's grief, love and time
It's the seasons gone wild
A cathedral at night
It's an ocean of tides

I've been colder
Watching Harry Potter, looking older
Feeling like I'm underwater
Smiling like a lie
Holding on to it all too tight
I've been hoping
I have what it takes to keep rolling
'Cause I will not stay underwater
I'll walk outside
I'll split the sky
I'll be alright

Tell all my friends
Tell all my friends
Tell all my friends
Tell all my friends
I'll be alright
Tell all my friends
Tell all my friends
Tell all my friends
Tell all my friends

Up where I'd climbed and felt so pretty
All the water flowed in from the sea to the city
