Heel

(album: The Longest Lonesome - 2019)

Turn my back on the world now
Soaking in grief like a parasite
Can't erase the cold constraints
These thoughts burn through
Like a candlelight
Can't hear the sounds
Can't hear the sounds
Of the life I've built passing over me
But the fact remains
I can't be saved
By anyone (or anything!)

I'm sorry I'm up to the same old shit
(But I can't be your confidant)
We can't breathe when we scream
For the world to give in
(Just let me breathe again)

Segregated, never felt more alone
'Cause I can't find the space
In these walls to call home
You felt berated
The aggression took its toll
You couldn't break the mold
I couldn't stay in your hold again
(Hold again)

I'm sorry I'm up to the same old shit
(But I can't be your confidant)
We can't breathe when we scream
For the world to give in
Don't wanna feel the permanence
Don't wanna be the detriment
Just wanna take the life I live
Wake up every day and still breathe in
(Just let me breathe again)

(Segregated)
But the fact remains I can't be saved by anyone

I'm sorry I'm up to the same old shit
(But I can't be your confidant)
We can't breathe when we scream
For the world to give in
Don't wanna feel the permanence
Don't wanna be the detriment
Just wanna take the life I live
Wake up every day and still breathe in
(Just let me breathe again!
I wanna breathe again!)
