lyrics

my brain is shifting from your face framed in gold
with every step it hits the walls of my skull
suppressing these thoughts and swallowing them whole
aware that you're leaving and i have no control
when you go, oh i know i'll miss this, it's clear
i can't help but listen to the stories i hear
my bones can't stay in my skin so it tears
we both know that this isn't fair

is there even a purpose?
i found you out
thought i would learn this
learn this by now
i can't resurface, just choke me out
i never get diction
i wish this was fiction

i've noticed my lack of delight
i'm skipping chapters of my life
i'd watch as it passes right by
but i'd rather be alone tonight
you think your mind is at ease
you can't reassure me
consider me out of reach
i ran out of words i won't speak
not coming back, relax
breathe in and breathe out
no doubt, i'll miss this
can't stay optimistic
it's rough, but keep out of touch
my mind is made up

i'm starting to realize what this is about
stuck in this city, i'm left here while you head south
(i've noticed my lack of delight
i'm skipping chapters of my life
i'd watch as it passes right by
but i'd rather be alone tonight)
