The Shortest Pier

(album: Stoke Extinguisher - 2013)

Put my eyes
Where I can see
Where the soul
Used to be
I feel the walls
Closing in on me

Shut my mouth
I take it back
It's no way
For us to act
I missed the boat
But somehow sailed away

But that's okay
I'll have a talk
With this dive bar
On a long walk
Along the shortest pier
And watch it disappear

There's a hole
In my mind
Where the sun
Used to shine
Memories
In black and white

Cut me off
I've had enough
Infect the wound
And sew me up
No more words
Hmm, hmm, hmm

But that's okay
I'll have a talk
With this dive bar
On a long walk
Along the shortest pier
And watch it disappear
Along the shortest pier
And watch it disappear
