The seasons take their toll and I'm biting my lip just to spit blood at my friends
You had my eyes and you were looking for answers, but that's not how they're designed
We have rivers, lakes and streams just running through our veins, but I am caught out in the swell
Well what if every word was meant for someone else?
I'll slip into my mind and forget that I exist
Sleeping in flower beds our bodies sink into the earth, forever lost to time
We had might in our bones and our hands were blistered stone weathered against spending eternity alone
You punched a hole through space and time to try and let the darkness out or to find your way through to the otherside
With one fell swoop I'd crush you all, every tiny bone
Carried out by hollow hands to the warmth of old dead trees
You were out there looking for those you lost, moving between the shades of light in your head
You called for life but no one yet has cheated death, what makes you think that I'd let you off the hook?
What if every word was meant for someone else?
I'll slip into my mind and forget that I exist
These flickering lights, I must be lost again
They don't call out my name, it hangs like a weight through time

Our souls bend down to dust and they draw lines to lead us home
But we're just pins in a map, a distance between us too much to concieve
And all this time I've wasted shouting out to you
Was lost to language and caught by the wind, not worth the oxygen
Still we resist all the reasons we exist
All directions lead to a broken down car, burnt out on the side of the road
You whispered, 'The engine is my heart' and disappeared back into smoke
Now hell is empty, all devils are on Earth and you can't kill what's already dead
So I will let my anger wash away 'cause there's no use for it anymore
