Half Hour

(album: Willowbank - 2017)

I walk around for one half hour
My thinking's clear at night
In all the walls I think I hear you
Soothing all the time

I've been let off of work today
But all my plans are flakes
You're scared and it's feels unfair
But maybe I'll be brave

I think I'll need you when I die
When I've got no one on my side
I think about it all the time and I need to
Get back when I see through lies

This time I'll scream until I cry
Then laugh for hours like
We're falling and high
I think about it all the time
When I leave you it won't be a clean goodbye

I never found that stead refusal
Like gritted through my teeth
You give me time for when I'm sinking
When I fail to please
Fighting off your lack of prowess
You smell like cigarettes
Reminded me of what you withdrew
When I hedged my bets

Slow down
Show me what you've seen
No I can't think of you
I'll only stay so you'll feel ok
But maybe I should move

I think I'll need you when I die
When I've got no one on my side
I think about it all the time and I need to
Get back when I see through lies

This time I'll scream until I cry
Then laugh for hours
Like we're falling and high
I think about it all the time
When I leave you it won't be a clean goodbye

Heard you say
You've gotta stay home
We've gotta stay cold
All in vain you got me
But I can't tell if you are trying or not

I think I'll need you when I die
When I've got no one on my side
I think about it all the time and I need to
Get back when I see through lies

This time I'll scream until I cry
Then laugh for hours
Like we're falling and high
I think about it all the time
When I leave you it won't be a clean goodbye
