Regret is all I've ever known. If someone would have shown me how, I could have found my own way home. The sea couldn't wait to take you. Its broken waves sent the shore ablaze with water, and the sky was on fire. I tired to pull you in as my throat began to close. But I could still reach you then. Your eyes hadn't died just yet. You returned the air to its proper place and settled into your humble goodbye, pretending to cry as the ocean soaked you in. But I could still reach you then. Your eyes hadn't died just yet. Remember the long way home when you go, don't you fear. Regret is all I've ever known. If someone would have shown me how I could have found my own way home. I was so afraid. I ran through the waste where our bodies lay and it's just like you to watch me jump through hoops. I'll never forget the way. But I could still reach you then. Your eyes hadn't died just yet. Remember the long way home when you go, don't you fear. Pretend that we're all alone and we'll go, just disappear. Just go, because you know I'll follow. I've always wondered why we were trapped in this place and couldn't touch the sky, but how could I know? I'll just feel the cold of the shore, close my eyes and follow. But I could still reach you then. Your eyes hadn't died just yet. And soon we would fly again, my voice would remind you then. Remember the long way home when you go, don't you fear. Pretend that we're all alone and we'll go, just disappear. Just go.
