(album: Epilogues - 2020)

I don't think I can take anymore
The feeling is dangerous
I had too much and woke up on the floor
But that couldn't save us
I put back together the pieces again
I did it in vain though
Cause every memory starts at the end
When everything fades out
I couldn't say no
I told you I would be fine
345 was a lie
You lit a fire inside
I tried to hide
I was entirely blind
The funeral pyre was bright
But I couldn't die
I tried to open my eyes
But I never woke up in time
Try as I might
You still confide in me why?
I still reply
I don't think I can take anymore
Enough with the past though
I pull up at 4:56 at the door
Familiar back roads
The last couple weeks gave me reason for hope
But regret's inescapable
I fumbled the words every time that we spoke
I think I'm incapable
I can't escape
I don't think I can take anymore

I don't think I can take anymore

There's nothing left to say now
Cause we felt these scars buried way down
Like a tell tale heart
But we breakdown
Just like disconnected satellites in the sky
Were burning bright
Find a room with skylight windows make me sit there inside
So when my vision fades it looks like '86 in the sky
I can't be saved now
Just like before
I don't I can take anymore
Just like before
I don't think I can take anymore

There's nothing to say
We tried to put this behind us before
It's stuck in the way
It's gathering slow like a storm on the coast
It's coming its imminent
Tearing apart what you wanted the most
But you were indifferent I wasn't listening
She never wrote alibis
Damage Control was a lie
You lit a fire inside
I tried to hide
I was entirely blind
The funeral pyre was bright
But I couldn't die
I tried to open my eyes
But I never woke up in time
Try as I might
You still confide in me why?
I still reply
I don't think I can take anymore
There's no end in sight
How much can you possibly try to ignore?
When you're home for the night
And shadows emerge from the corners again
I just wanna try and sleep
But into the darkness you slowly descend
With fear and anxiety zero sobriety no I can't take anymore

I don't think I can take anymore

There's nothing left to say now
Cause we felt these scars buried way down
Like a tell tale heart
But we breakdown
Just like disconnected satellites in the sky
Were burning bright
Find a room with skylight windows make me sit there inside
So when my vision fades it looks like '86 in the sky
I can't be saved now
Just like before
I don't I can take anymore
Just like before
I don't think I can take anymore

I don't think I can take anymore

I let this get inside my head
Time and time again
In every epilogue I've read
Seems like they never find the end
I let this get inside my head
Time and time again
In every epilogue I've read
Seems like they never find the end
