lyrics

Bigger Than You

And there's a reason why
we never had goodbye
and there's a reason why

Yeah there's a reason why
I ride days out into night
like some new battle cry

They say it's bigger than you
but they don't own the truth
It's not always plain to see
I will forget what you meant to me
and there's a reason why

You found a way to me
in spite of me
living on empty

But you let the past decide
there was nothing to satisfy
your own hypnotic tide

They say it's bigger than you
but they don't own the truth
It's not always plain to see
I will forget what you meant to me
and there's a reason why
