Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
Standing at the window watching cars pass by
Wondering what's the point beneath this sky
Everybody's chasing something they can't hold
Trading all their moments just to grow old
[chorus]
What's this life for if we never stop to see
What's this life for if we're never free
Tell me what's the reason we keep running blind
Searching for an answer we can't seem to find
[verse]
I've climbed the ladders, chased the empty gold
Sold my mornings just to feel controlled
But nothing that I've bought has filled the hole
Nothing that I've won has touched my soul
[chorus]
What's this life for if we never stop to see
What's this life for if we're never free
Tell me what's the reason we keep running blind
Searching for an answer we can't seem to find
[bridge]
Maybe the answer's simpler than we think
Maybe it's the love we're scared to drink
Maybe it's the moment, not the mile
Maybe it was always just this life
[chorus]
What's this life for if we never stop to see
What's this life for if we're never free
Tell me what's the reason we keep running blind
Searching for an answer we can't seem to find

Wondering what's the point beneath this sky
Everybody's chasing something they can't hold
Trading all their moments just to grow old

What's this life for if we never stop to see
What's this life for if we're never free
Tell me what's the reason we keep running blind
Searching for an answer we can't seem to find

Sold my mornings just to feel controlled
But nothing that I've bought has filled the hole
Nothing that I've won has touched my soul

What's this life for if we never stop to see
What's this life for if we're never free
Tell me what's the reason we keep running blind
Searching for an answer we can't seem to find

What's this life for if we're never free
Tell me what's the reason we keep running blind
Searching for an answer we can't seem to find
