On Planets - So Long

"This song is about the flow back and forth between coming and going. As words they are separate and opposite, but without leaving one place, it is impossible to arrive at the next-in many ways they are one and the same thing. In a particularly confusing time about which direction we are headed in, it’s a bit of a reminder that really the only direction is forward." - On Planets

✨ Lyrics
From a tangle of intention,
Decision and dead branches,
I did my best, but couldn’t pull out any answers
Was living in the lurch behind this fear of going backwards
To close another chapter
So standing on the pier
At the shore of all I’ve done,
Nothing left except to wait
And hope the tide would come up
Isn’t it a shame how much I've left upon the dock?
In the name of moving on,
I cut the ropes and cast off
I know, I know
You’ve been swimming so slow
And there’s a light on the horizon
So long, so long
Hope you make it back home
Don’t lose sight of where you started from
In a haze of aimless rest,
With the crutch of coming last,
Caved and craned my neck
As a year went floating past
Crawled out to the edge,
It was time to leave the raft;
Forever on a crest
On a wave that couldn’t crash
Had a hard time coming back,
Forgot the taste of salt
Was grasping at a chance
When I got dashed upon the rocks
I’d been casting seams across the bricks in my façade;
Cracked up, smiling at the tideline,
Washed up back where I belong
I know, I know
You’ve been swimming so slow
And there’s a light on the horizon
So long, so long
Hope you make it back home
Don’t lose sight of where you started from
I know, I know
You’ve been swimming so slow
And there’s a light on the horizon
So long, so long
Hope you make it back home
Don’t lose sight of where you started from
I know, I know
There’s a light on the horizon
So long, so long
Don’t lose sight of where you started from

I literally needed this. "Dont lose sight of where you started from" hit me hard. I pretty much gave up on the rest of highschool due to covid, but the message this gives me was enough to give me the motivation to open my chromebook and get going again. I have a chance to graduate, thank you so much @onplanets i needed this message
