The Arousal Of Repair

(album: Mass Candescence - 2018)

Nervous, crashed in
To incoming traffic
When is phasing time, I'm told?
A weekend is passed in
The light in your sunglasses
Nothing feels the same, I hope

Man, I thought I was living
Now I know I wasn't living

Loose ends, plastic
Buried without mention
Now I'm digging up a ghost
Nervous, crashed in
Worn out, never lasted
Shatter like glass in the cold

Man, I thought I was living
Man, I might just be living
Now I know I wasn't living

I don't think you keep your promise, now
I only feel you twisting the how
The where, the why, the what about
(Man, thought I was living)
The ways I've let me down

It's late and it's quiet
Losing sleep from trying
Trying to begin, again

Man, I thought I was living
Man, I might just be living
Man, I thought I was living
Now I know I wasn't living
