Savior on the streets, so beholden to the sins he seeks
Wine only speeds the process, so take water
Crashed cars only speak in consonants to pavement
Wine doesn’t taste like blood
Why did the engine stall?
Bring the dead to life
I finally realize why when you take my call
You take my call

Since I’ve been home for a while and feeling alright inside
It’s like I’m waiting for life to kick me aside
When I lay down at night, I’m singing in my sleep
Count it down until I’m back to zero
Nothing is forever, or so I’ve been told
While you waited for life to give you a sign
I’ve been laid up at night
I’m singing in my dreams

Apt. 405

With the lion’s share, could I circle back to the start again?
If a heart attack wouldn’t settle you
I’d run in circles and circles, and circles some more
Wake up from that dream, I wish I was still asleep
I want to forget me
Took the lion’s share of the benefits
Couldn’t feel a thing, it was obvious
I can see the light fold eyelids back into sleep again
I’m having that dream again
Wake up from that dream, I wish I was still asleep
I want to forget me

Revenant

The trouble it seems, with all of my dreams, is becoming apparent
A single theme repeats, I’m not in them
It’s harder to sleep with revenant dreams excluding a narrative
Why can’t I just be like everyone else?
Try to be blind in the dark when no one’s watching
My focus isn’t clear
Apathy apparent
I’ve tasted failure, man
It wasn’t worth sharing

Cemetery

Aiming at what’s coming for me
Coming toward me, always coming for me
Why’d you wait, why’d you wait to see me
What’s the point? What’s the point of leaving?
Why’d you wake up when it slipped away?
All I wanted was to feel included
Cemetery near my house is full
I’ve been told more than once, my life is fleeting
Selling gold by the ounce
Never really reaping

Smile

Wear your mask with the odd-shaped smile and fake pleasantries
I’ll never get to see what’s really underneath
Do you fake a smile? Or maybe that’s who you are?
Would it kill you to know?
I guess I’ll wear mine too
Wear it well
I’ll never know the difference

Hallow

So, I laid out all I wanted
But the voices never responded
I might say things that should remain unsaid
But my hauntings must have been misread
As cues, as to what I became without you
Greener hues in time, greener grass in mind
I walked back my fears when I left you here
If I face new threats and my misgivings are misread
As cues, as to what became of me when you said
I can’t eat, I can’t sleep
I can barely even breathe

Dry your eyes and tell me lies
This house never felt so small
Just keep your composure for me please
Hold my hand, ‘cause I’m too young to watch her go
I’ll just sit here and wait for you to call me in to say goodbye
I waivered on the words, a crack in my voice I couldn’t picture her with all of her joy
I sat in the room and waited, watching cartoons while she faded away
Pause the TV, tell me quietly
She took her last breath and rests easy now
This house never felt so small
