All the Wine - Time & Direction [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

I can feel the delicate balance shifting
The brass pan scales are starting to quiver
And every single letter that we stitched into our skin
Has faded now like your memory

And I swore on the greatest city skylines
That we’d make it through the year if it killed us
The lights above the corner cascading down your face
They would carry us halfway across the world

And I promised her I could love her again
Like at 17, lying on my bedroom floor
Dropping darts through foreign maps in magazines
And how many times did we cut ourselves wide open?
Within the walls, inside the house with the lights out
And said we already felt the zephyrs

And I swore on the greatest city skylines
That we’d make it through the year if it killed us
The lights above the corner were heavier than all the concrete
Crashing down, down, down

And we tried reviving something that we lost somewhere out there
Cause we were so tall; we were more than this and we’d never be torn down
And we tried reminding ourselves that the distance was just time and direction
But your head started turning, and I could tell that there was someone on your mind
