Losing Days

(album: I Won't Reach Out To You - 2021)

Swallow your tongue
Said it's hard to speak your thoughts here
Baked in the shade
Losing days because it's hard to reason leaving the bed
Debt's been building since we got here, staying the same
Forget it, forget it, forget it

Forget it
Polished till it's lost its value
Scored with cuts from being carried through the mire and gray
Complications meant to improve
Bruised your shoulder as you walk across your hall
The birdsong can't cross walls
Maybe head outside, the air might clear your mind
Or maybe not today
No, maybe not today

As you walked across your hall
You're crushed between these walls
It never goes away
Ashamed of what you'll say

Swallow your tongue
Said it's hard to speak your thoughts here
Baked in the shade
Losing days because it's hard to reason
Leaving the bed
Debt's been building since we got here, staying the same
Forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it
