Meet Me At The Bottom

(album: Zzyzx Road - 2013)

We're all trying to find a diamond in the rough
Until we find out a diamond's not enough
It never was it never will be
But the truth of the matter is this feeling will probably kill me

A funeral for friends
A means without an end
A heart that's still broke
And a letter I never sent
When you left I understood, but that pain was subsided
Looking at a home with the throne that's still divided
A king without a queen, and a beauty that's seldom seen
A sleep without a dream is no reality to me, huh?
So this is everything I meant to say but held it back?
Like fuck the insults that validate the traits I lack
You try to act like I didn't know your intentions
But love is just a word, true love is an invention
Affection, based on the high of pointless erections, and consequences everyone forgets to mention
I sealed this letter in an envelope this is for me
I gotta get it out regardless if you choose to read
Let it go so I can move along, and start again
Even though we both know the only place my heart has been

Even though you leave me, you'll still meet me at the bottom
You can meet me at the bottom
No one left beside me, so you can find me where I've always been
Yea, you can find me at the bottom
Always been

We're all looking for that counterpoint to be until we figure out no matter what that point will always leave
It always has it always will because we got a hole to fill
The height of the love with that drop after that always kills
I wrote this letter so I didn't have to hear rebuttal
Fuck happy I'm just trying to make it through the struggle
I never saw the signs between losing and trying to find and searching through every insecurity for this mastermind
Another mastermind manipulate the situation, racing to the bottom I will meet you set the time and place it's
Always been the same, but still I was afraid to speak
So let's bury these issues with our trusts inside the sheets
That's why we can't sleep, but lay awake when we're apart
I stopped counting sheep, I'm counting every single star
I almost forgot who you are, and maybe that's for better
It's also why I think I choose to hold onto this letter

Even though you leave me, you'll still meet me at the bottom
You can meet me at the bottom
No one left beside me, so you can find me where I've always been
Yea, you can find me at the bottom
Always been
Even though you leave me, you'll still meet me at the bottom
You can meet me at the bottom
No one left beside me, so you can find me where I've always been
Yea, you can find me at the bottom
Always been

You can meet me at the bottom; That's the same place I've always been; Go look and you can find me

We're all searching for a purpose in this fight
Despite the things we know as the harsh facts of life
I'm staying at the bottom, cold dark and rotten
I sent a couple letters, you must not have got 'em
