Mae(USA) - A Race for Our Autonomy lyrics

[MaeUSA - A Race for Our Autonomy lyrics]

I remember pacing back in forth
In our cluttered room in wait of your reply
That was the day I found the
Strength to say those things
And look you in the eye

The symbiotic nature of this bond
Is hardly paying in
Those dividends are shrinking again
With choices left to make and chains to break
To forfeit is to win

It seems you're catching on to me
You're onto me, I know
You've always been that part of me
That part that won't let go

A self-fulfilling prophecy
A heart that's frozen cold
When frightened by autonomy
We both refuse to grow

So I must ask

Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
There is no love in fear
So where do we go from here?

I know we've heard our
Share of broken promises
Yet hang on every word
But when the past becomes the present
Such resentment and hard
Lines getting blurred

Whoever got anywhere without the pulse
Of another beating heart?
Those memories are falling apart now
The choices left to make and chains to break
To forfeit is to start

It seems you're catching on to me
You're onto me, I know
You've always been that part of me
That part that won't let go

A self-fulfilling prophecy
A heart that's frozen cold
When frightened by autonomy
We both refuse to grow

So I must ask

Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
There is no love in fear
So where do we go from here?

I see you catching onto me
And with it you should know
There is a hope where none should be
And time for letting go
It's giving into honesty
And taking back control
A race for our autonomy
A heart that's full of hope

The race is on the race is on
The race is on the race is on
