The Eden Project - Fumes ft. gnash

Gary:

The morning light shines a lifeline

Escape is what I need

I should've listened last night, girl

This is beyond belief

That we keep falling for the lure of

Liquid confidence and lies

And we skydive from walls we built

Dying just to feel alive

On the way down screamin'

Drew:

Woah

If all we have is time, then we'll be alright

It's not much, but it's better than nothing

We're running on fumes, but we'll make it through the night

It's not love, but it's better than dreaming

Oh, I'm on fire

There's a burning in my bones and in my eyes

These dreams they're taking hold, I just need time

Time

Ash:

Building walls to burn them down

Cannonballs to watch me drown

You've got me lost in here and now

You've got me gone and lost and found

We only hang in evenings

And I don't know what I'm thinking

But I know that I won't think it

If I keep up with this thinking

All these dreams and all these plans

We shared under the moonlight

They're dreams and plans that I have

I just don't know if you'll fit right

When I leave in the morning

And I kiss you and say goodnight

I kick myself until we kick it

Should've told you goodbye

Coming home so late at night

With clothes covered in sand

I don't know just what I'm missing

But I'm doing what I can

And if all we have is time then will we find

Paul:

Woah

If all we have is time, then we'll be alright

It's not much, but it's better than nothing

We're running on fumes, but we'll make it through the night

It's not love, but it's better than dreaming

All:

Woah

If all we have is time, then we'll be alright

It's not much, but it's better than nothing

We're running on fumes, but we'll make it through the night

It's not love, but it's better than dreaming

Suddenly a shot rang out and Drew fell off the stage, in seemingly slow motion.


9 months earlier...

"This is absolute bullshit" The impatient girl yelled, throwing her bag across the room.

"How the hell do you expect me to go to school without my instrument?"

M-Miss we're working on it, just cal-

Whatever. It better be here tomorrow.

The girl walked out of the airport terminal cursing under her breath. She wanted to go back and apologize for acting that way to the employee, but if she went back in they might not let her out.

A woman stood outside the airport with her name on a sign. "Miss Leaf Green?" asked quietly. "Yep! That's me!" She said cheerfully, her attitude seemingly gone.

The woman ushered her into a small car and started driving. "Miss, there is about a 40 minute drive to the academy from here." "Thank you for telling me."

After about ten minutes the silence became unbearable, so Leaf started drifting off into her mind. 'I still can't believe I finally made it.' she thought. Ever since she had heard about Altaria Music University when she was 18, she'd apply every year, and was never accepted. She was 21 now and in her senior year of college, doubtful she'd be accepted, but applied anyways. When she got her letter of acceptance, she was ecstatic with joy. She was a little disappointed that she was accepted as a senior, but she resolved that she would make the best of the time she had here. Now pulling into the gates of her new home she was shaky and nervous.

"Miss Green, we've arrived. Head straight to the front office to receive a name tag and there should be a tour guide with a few other students. Someone will take your bags to your room." "Thank you so much," Leaf said sweetly. The woman nodded her head in response and sped off.

After wandering around for about 5 minutes Leaf's temper flared up. "The damn lady, could have at least told where the office was! And why the fuck is no one around?!" Eventually, she found the office. "Huh? Are you Miss Green?" The front secretary asked. Leaf nodded warily "They're waiting in the back for you." She walked quickly into the room where about 6 other students were waiting, some, obviously irritated. "Fucking finally." a blonde boy muttered under his breath. "Hey chill Trip, we're still waiting for the teacher anyways." A dark skinned girl huffed. A tall man walked through the door and yelled "Ten Hut!" Immediately a boy in a hat stood up and saluted, standing at attention. The rest stood where they were, looking tired. ""Oh calm down, Surge," a young beautiful woman said. "Hello, My name is Miss Valerie and this is Lt. Surge and we are two teachers here at AMU. I'm the head stage manager in charge, but I specialize in makeup, costumes, etc. Lt. Surge is in charge of stage production, we work very closely and will be touring with you today. Classes start in two days, so take notes."


About 2 hours later…

Room 108… finally! Leaf fell on her bed exhausted after the extensive tour had ended. She heard rustling in the bathroom, knowing she'd be placed with a roommate. She struggled to keep her eyes open to greet the stranger, but soon fell into the deep abyss of her dreams.
