Lyrics and translation
Original
Well, I'm scared too
That we don't know why we're here
Or where we came from and if we get to go back to it
I'm scared too
That the world seems so unfair
And the TV keeps remindin' us we blew it
I'm scared of gettin' old, of dyin' young, of stayin' still, of movin' on
Of reachin' out too far and losing my footing
But the answers lie in little things, so I'm keepin' my heart tied to a string
That's tied to you no matter where you're goin'
And I'm sorry
That life can be so hard
And that I can't fix most things you need fixin'
And I'm so sorry
We bury dogs in the backyard
And still take for granted all the time we're given
I'm sorry growin' up hurts so much, and we lose people that we love
And the rainbows only come after the stormin'
But in nature, there's no such thing as king
So I'm keepin' my heart tied to a string
That's tied to you no matter where you're goin'
No matter where you're goin' (I'm tied to you, I'm tied to you)
No matter where you're goin' (I'm tied to you, I'm tied to you)
No matter where you're goin', no matter where you're goin'
I'm tied to you
So don't forget that we're the lucky ones who feel the feelings in our bones
And hold our breath inside our lungs, so we don't cry in public
But the breakin' only means it's love, so don't ever let it make you tough
Don't ever try to ever rise above it
I'm tied to you
I'm tied to you
I'm tied so tight to you (I'm tied to you)
No matter where you're goin' (no matter where you're goin')
No matter where you're goin'
