lyrics

Back in the city where parts of my life are stored
The history's connected by yellow dashed chords
Our eyes can see certain colors but the rest we couldn't afford
I've been catching qualities that the wind has blown
And coexisting with my alter ego
But your only the result
of combining of your heroes

One man's trash is another man's treasure
It's not just objects, the list goes on forever

Yesterday I ran into my childhood at an old playground
As I paced around the forgotten thoughts
I created new ones
Time keeps moving and so should we
But the grass is always greener even in our memories
After all they're what distinguish dreams from reality

Stumble upon a memory
and take a personal vacation
Your tracks overlap
And you're united with the past

I didn't mean to be a subconscious detective
But when i saw the same canvas from a different perspective
It was then that I could see we each must have a playground of our own
An architect designed it and your imagination built a home
