[English]

anyways

what's the name of your ship again?

...

you make it feel like yesterday

can you find a way to count me in?

is the endless still unbound?

...

meet you there

and your friend and anybody else

...

even if i swim up for air

i'll find a way to forget myself

is the endless still unbound?

or am i just different now?

...

is the endless still unbound?

...

you and i are crossing lines and giving in confusion

i don't think i mind

it's too far it's the new entrance into innocence

far away is closer than it sounds

is the endless still unbound?

or am i just different now?

...

is the endless still unbound?

or am i just different now?

...

is the endless still unbound?

...

is the endless still unbound?

...

is the endless still unbound?

...

is the endless still unbound?

or am i just different now?
