Fever Dream

(album: Adornment - 2017)

I'm ashes, post-flame
All the coal that disintegrates
I'll just lie here quietly
Sink into the earth's defeat
As I watched you grow dull
Wonder how you stay so cold
Always knew something was wrong
Never chose to play along, here

So sit down, shut off,
I don't know how I let you lead so long
Cause right now you're only holding me back
Cause I'm not where I want to be
And you're not who I wish you were
So I'll rest my eyes and we'll try in another life

While I was eating off the floor
Alone and drowning in my thoughts
Your gut was full, still wanting more
You wanted more

So sit down, shut off,
I don't know how I let you lead so long
Cause right now you're only holding me back
Cause I'm not where I want to be
And you're not who I wish you were
So I'll rest my eyes and we'll try in another life

I walk this road, behind you now
I feel so lost, cause you're never gonna turn around
Down cobblestone, I scream your name
I fight your past, cause you're never gonna feel the same

I walk this road, behind you now
(Drown myself in this peaceful lake)
I feel so lost, cause you're never gonna turn around
(Feel the water pull me away)
Down cobblestone, I scream your name
(Maybe there's a place for us down here someday)
I fight your past, cause you're never gonna feel the same
(I'll see you again someday; I promise I'll see you someday)

So sit down, shut off,
I don't know how I let you lead so long
Cause right now you're only holding me back
Cause I'm not where I want to be
No you're not who I wish you were
So I'll rest my eyes and we'll try in another life
