Trace Chain

(album: Texas Collectious - 2022)

Songbirds at sunrise
And I'll complain about the noise
My patio is a little large
For me to enjoy

What am I doing
I got so much to fix myself
I can't keep living my life
Knowing I bring you down
Down in the dumps
Standing out in a crowd
Should we say it out loud

That the P A S T past so heavy
And the void of letting go
Makes a C L O U D around me
When I think of what you know
The whole damn thing is in lightning
And maybe I can't do anything right
If I'm dead to you really
Say goodbye, say goodbye

What am I doing
I'll love the sun and all it shines on
Wake at dawn or at least try
Forget I'm feeling like
A pile of dirt
Standing out in a crowd
Should I say it out loud

That the P A S T past so heavy
And the void of letting go
Makes a C L O U D around me
When I think of what you know
The whole damn thing is in lightning
And maybe I can't do anything right
If I'm dead to you really
Guess it's time to say goodbye

It's not the strength I need to keep going
It's not the sense of growing apart
Just keeping growing
But the end that's finally here
After a long start
And the wind that's been nipping at my heels
Yeah the horizon is far
But it makes my heart say
Yeah man I drove
But I still don't know much
About how you feel
If you knew I was hurt
Felt sorta worthless
You kept an even keel
The one time you cried
Burned in my mind
Dancing in the kitchen
And timewarp rides
My whole world's pretend
And you don't even bend
To save us again
