Funeral Post

(album: The Canyon - 2017)

It's never enough
You know
The space you crowd feels bigger
Apart from the things you won't show

Stay'd stuck in a pose
You're posing
Ya baby
Metabolize
The poison if you choke it down slow
Dug a hole to place a post
You're pictures on my wall;
But I cannot remember your face

Though I, I wish you well
I need you to leave me alone

Better to bide my time and take it slow
Vetted sick has a face that is calling my name
Better to bite my lip and say no more
Because I promise I'll never believe what you promised
I need you to leave me alone

Take more than enough
You go

Unpack your shit
You're making a mess
It's the coils in the stacks
With a wrack and the knots in the chords

Stay'd stuck with a rash
You itch till it's bleeding
Internalize the noise
Until it's all that you know
It's more than a map
It's a gift from the past

Dig the grave
The post remains
I missed the funeral
But I hope that you had a great show

Though I, I wish you well
I need you to, need you to leave me alone

Better to bide my time and take it slow
Vetted sick has a face that is calling my name
Better to bite my lip and say no more
Because I promise I'll never believe what you promised
I need you to leave me alone

Do this:
Take a breath and hold me
I can finally recognize myself
Even if I am invisible

You don't get to ever hold me back
Accept the roses
Take it slow
This is our final curtain call

Better to bide my time and take it slow
Vetted sick has a face and it's calling my name
Better to bide my time and take it slow
Vetted sick has a face that is calling my name
Better to bite my lip and say no more
Because I promise I'll never believe what you promised
I need you to leave me alone
