on the wall

(album: creatures together - 2022)

Why does it always feel like everything is coming to a close?
How could I know?
I'll let these stories speak for me
Inform me when I can let go, go, go
Why is the sky always falling?
I'm calling you in case you don't
I heard the end is approaching
And I've just been hoping that these memories overthrow, wow, wow (Yeah)
And the weight of the words you've been saying will slowly seep in deconstructing my faith
Defying gravity almost comes naturally when both your feet feel like they'll ricochet
Off of the pavement, we both could've made it but your mind is set to a sloping decay
Thank God you're leaving 'cause I'm done believing a majority of the shit that you say

Gone forever written on the wall
And I can hear you screaming things from down the hall
If I creep in quietly, I'll save us all
In the midst of travesty, I feel so small

Kiss the lips of death in my endeavor
Hollow out the eyes of my contender
Trust your fight or flight in taking shelter
Lie awake at night beside whoever
The air is cold, but I don't really mind it
Lost my mind, in time, I'm sure, I'll find it
I don't like myself, but it's whatever
'Cause I'm still tryna piece myself together
