lyrics

I said to you that day “I wish I could head back home”,
but instead you got on a flight, and I stood on a walkway belt.
And those flags reminded me of the world I’ll barely see,
but when the sensor went off all of it meant nothing,
and right there and then I knew it meant something.

Because sometimes I miss you guys too much,
in corners, near luggage, departures, and advertisements.
It looked better in retrospect,
Against the cold lake wind.

Somehow those simple words are what I have come to miss,
“Progress involves risk”, and I said it too many times to forget it,
And of course I felt movement as we started to head south,
flustered and confused: “I wondered how I got out.”
The bird looking back at the cage with big doubts.

Sometimes you find your lesson in an airport gateway,
learning they can’t be 5 minutes away.
