lyrics

As the sun rises I sink deeper
Anchors in my gut wake the sleeper
Instant heartache every morning
Constant pitfalls, constant forming

One breath beats the other
Cage is rattled
Eyes in cold wind lose the battle

Pull yourself right back
Back to the rut
Every last minute tugs on the gut

Pills will reel them in and portions of the seabed join the puncture
And salt water will rust away the structure

Find distractions shovel them in
Fill in the holes
Seal to hem in

One more temp fix till the next burst
Endless spring waters never quench the thirst
Shift the frame to suit the viewer
Don’t forget to restart the tour

One new brave face one more layer
The diligent becomes the soothsayer

Hands will push you down and potions will preserve you for the big show
Nothing for you up there just the dust and bones from the bottom row
Pill will reel them in and portions of the seabed join the puncture
And salt water will rust away the structure

I’m tired I’m fucking done I’m wired I’m wired for once
I’m shocked and I’m locked on it I’m nothing but a counterfeit
I’m nothing but a counterfeit

We know where we always are we stare up the same stars
We don’t we don’t get along we have no hymn sheet let alone a song
And we won’t stop till the other is gone
