coast is clear
i'm ending it here
road closed for construction
blocking the way
with this wall to
keep the water from flowing
i see your face
i hear my name
i need a rest to begin
i hope it stops
me from spinning
further into space
i'm disappearing
it's worse than it seems
it's getting deeper
it's gettiing farther
and i need to feel
something else
and i need to begin
to see the light
i see your face
i hear my name
i need a rest to begin
i hope it stops
me from spinning
further into space
penny drops
the sky is falling
further into space
i hope it stops
me from spinning
further into space
penny drops
the sky is falling
further into space

bright lights

i just realized
i've been alive longer
without you by my side
yet you still have me
at a chokehold
i cannot shake
no matter how i try
you're a shadow
you will not fade
no matter how bright
the lights i find
to shine
no matter how bright
the lights i find
to shine
you never speak
a single word
of comfort
i never hear your voice
and i've forgotten
how it sounds
i've forgotten
how it sounds
but you're a shadow
you will not fade
no matter how bright
the lights i find
no matter how bright
the lights i find

hibernate

drama starts
unravels from a loose thread
in my mind
it spins a yarn
i've lost my way
into a forest of compulsion
i cannot pause
to replay
i have spun away with this tale
in this riddle i cannot fail
it needs an immediate answer
can i just hibernate
story starts
i cannot wait to end it
so i try to read the last page
but it doesn't make sense
disconnected from the rest
i need to pause
to replay
i have spun away with this tale
with this question i cannot fail
it needs an immediate answer
can i just hibernate
story starts
i have spun away with this tale
with this question i cannot fail
it needs an immediate answer
can i just hibernate

will you allow me
this simple favor
be a memory
that i can bury
in my heart
in a cage
that will never spark
that can never hurt me
will you remember
for the both of us
the wounds of yesterday
that scars we carved
into each other
the names we took
the love we stole
from those who
deserve it most
we don't deserve it
will you forgive me
can you even forget
is that a possibility
however remote
it's not so easy
do you realize now
we're meant to spin in circles
and drown in doubt
tell the same old stories
relive the same old glories
the devil in the details
until we disappear
into each other
the names we took
the love we stole
from those who
deserve it most
we don't deserve it

the hours
04:01
|

|
i know i regret
that it ended
not in goodbyes
but accusations
speculations
recriminations
it should have been better
for the both of us
just know i needed
silence and space
away from the situation
the numbers added up
to me on the other end of this equation
life seems to be the opposite
it works like it has an agenda
and a bias against reconciliation
or maybe it's just me
maybe it's just me
this couple of years haven't been easy
for you and for me
for everybody
the isolation has stolen a lot from us
stolen a lot of love
stolen a lot from life
and still the numbers tick and drop
and still the hours keep adding up
and still the numbers tick and drop
and still the hours keep adding up

technicolor

i swim in the river
of memories
i go near the center
approaching the bottom
i may be careful not to
ever drown
but sometimes i ask if
it's worth being around
staying afloat
because i remember
you fully in color
technicolor
i'm in black and white
and i'm black and blue
sometimes
sometimes
you're the reflection
in the water
you're the voice
in my head
so can you reach from
wherever you are
pull at my feet
take me to the weeds
i won't fight
your ghost when i feel it
but i never feel it
i just keep swimming
in this river
of memories
when i go near the center
approaching the bottom
i may be careful not to
ever drown
though sometimes i ask if
it's worth being around
it's worth staying afloat
because i remember
you fully in color
technicolor
while i'm in black and white
while i'm in black and blue
and i'm asking for you
just asking for you

zero once more
04:06
|
|||
|
i'm getting afraid
i'm making a mistake
of leaving too soon
and now it's too late
the voice in my head
tells me i'm just
too old to restart
to go back to nil
if i want to breathe
if i want a break
i'd have to begin
from zero once more
meet new friends
and brave the cold
shoulder of youth
and look in the mirror
and see my face
cheeks caving in
i'm losing faith
i say a prayer
and i beg a god
i don't believe in
i pray with my heart
for the courage to pick
the pieces that life
has broken again
the voice in my head
tells me i'm just
too old to restart
to go back to nil
if i want to breathe
if i want a break
i'd have to begin
from zero once more
meet a new me
braving the dark
places i fear
look at myself
look at it hard
walls caving in
