I spent the last year in suspension
Harrowed by the thought
Of opening my blinds
Letting go of lesser times
Now it's gone.
You're better off.
Could you come and rest with me
Even just for the moment?
And I don't think there's a point to this
To chasing momentary bliss
Feeling like I can't exist
Fuck the world, I will persist, I'm alive
Could you come and rest with me?
Do you regret the cold
That swallowed up your temple?
Swaying back and forth.
Never quite on time
Never quite your tempo
But you keep to it anyway.
Did you not learn to walk
Before you learned to swim?
You're drowning out there, kid.
We're never quite who we are,
Maybe that's okay
We're better off ourselves
You're better off
Dreaming of
The viaduct
