lyrics

Burst into life and brim with hope. Step into the breach as you reach for the rope. You may live on, pretending you’re a dreamer, but I’m not. With dreams beneath, imagining my wonders here are slight. So grip tight on moments of peace on a ceaseless path, soured by sentiment and sentences past. Condemned forever to waste as a fleeting mass. You question why to dream no answer. Shatter fantasy to the floor. Breaking teeth on shards of conversation as you pour more empty blessings on a closing door. So grateful for a break in the silence as it creaks into the abyss. I follow you as we lay down these heads. Full of pale thoughts, overflowing into pails that tumble to the bottom of the frail well. Tipping the scales between what’s lost and what we’ll drag through. I’ll keep dragging through. Though you’re more weight than I can hold, I still grip on the rope with burning hands. For so long now I have gripped this rope. There’s only so long I can hold on. There’s only so long, so let go.
