SEEKING SOMETHING LYRICS
01 EUSTON STATION
Leaving Euston station
I pull out of the dust and distress
The train is heading backwards
A heartbeat away from the edge
There’s no way back
Knowing my way leads back
To regret
The running to ease the pain
How will I ever learn?
The running keeps me safe
And promises the pain to return
Leaving never felt hard
You know when you’ve stayed too long
On old tracks, we’re moving fast
You feel like you never belong
There’s no way back
Knowing my way leads back
To regret
The running to ease the pain
How will I ever learn?
The running keeps me safe
And promises the pain to return
I found a new home to rest
The sky’s always clear far out west
Released from the past of all I know
The moment I let go it will show
The moment I let go it will show
Oooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
There’s no way back
Knowing my way leads back
To regret
(C) Andersson
02 SEEKING SOMETHING
I walk, follow in your footsteps
Blackthorn blossoms in spring ‘round here
We follow their path, traveling further than we meant to go
In your company, I’m free, I’m curious and I’m at ease
Long talk, tell me your worries
White shore, tangling points of view
When the fear pulls fast, it drags you in the undertow
Till the aching comes back, you question everything you know
So if you need to leave home
Seeking something (I will let you leave, I’ll let you go)
For clarity when you’re alone
Seeking something (I will let you leave)
I will let go
Night falls, and I’ve lost sight of you
Pitch dark, washing up waves of blue
I have lost my course, and I don’t think I’m thinking straight
When I can’t catch my breath, I know I’m missing you
But if you need to leave home
Seeking something (I will let you leave, I’ll let you go)
For clarity when you’re alone
Seeking something (I will let you leave)
I will let go
If you need to leave home
Seeking something (I will let you leave, I’ll let you go)
For clarity when you’re alone
Seeking something (I will let you leave)
But if you need to leave home
Seeking something (I will let you leave, I’ll let you go)
For clarity when you’re alone
Seeking something (I will let you leave)
I will let go
I will let go
I will let go

03 CALM THE CHAOS
Stir it up now we’re still
Then calm the chaos within
We’ve been trying so hard
Trying too hard, I’ve felt it
Speed up, shut it all down
Close the doors left behind
We’ve been working so hard
Working too hard, I’ve seen it
One more look at you sees me through
One more hour on the phone should do
One more day to fill, what we can not do, we got to
Who thought
Who would have known
About the challenge of waiting
The discomfort in staying still
We thought
We thought we had it all
But the challenge of waiting
The discomfort in staying proved us wrong
Speak up, let us know
Leave this heavy load
We’ve been holding back
I’ve been holding myself back, I know it
Give us strength to cope, clarity
Give us beams of hope, to set us free
We’ll have space to fill with meaning
Who thought
Who would have known
About the challenge of waiting
The discomfort in staying still
We thought
We thought we had it all
But the challenge of waiting
The discomfort in staying proved us wrong
Come sit down be still
Calm the chaos within

04 WHAT IS REAL
What is real, is instant
What is real, takes time
And the bottom of the pit that I dig
When I fear I have no one
It isn’t real
What is real, isn’t showing
What is real, does not care to be shown
At the bottom of the pit that I dig
When I feel I’m alone
It isn’t real
Know what is real
The effortless, the softness, it’s the small things
The magnetic intuition of what’s calling you
And to know when you dig your bottomless pit
That you’ll be fine
Cause everything’s right on time
What is real, is not knowing
What is real, is to trust the unknown
And the bottom of the pit that I dig
When I feel like I’ve lost it all
It isn’t real
Know what is real
It’s the sound of rain, the presence, a short pause
To align ourselves, to not get lost in our own thoughts
And when you dig too deep, in your bottomless pit
Think of this, and of all that’s yours
And know
What is real
Know
What is real
Know
What is real
