lyrics

I've spent
Nearly four years
Staring at a wall

While these old clothes and empty cans of seltzer
Make a mountain range of the floor

Bad news
Struck too soon
and shook the earth below my feet

Infectious decent into crippling anxiety

Although they're just words I tend to hold to high accord
To justify all these complex patterns notes and silly chords

Senseless
Catatonic
As I watch out my window
A silent film like argument
While my cat plays the soundtrack on the piano

At the end of the day you find yourself
Hard pressed to separate fact from fiction
At the end of the day you find yourself
Buried in the bottle to make your thoughts go away

I've spent
Nearly three years pacing back and forth
Is it hopeless
On the verge of breaking
Afraid to make a choice

Bad news
Struck too soon
And cracked the earth below my feet

But I'm OK
Heart's still beating
Content with whats become of me

A struggle to fill a void left so long ago
A hole dug by years of self-loathing
Coke bottle frames and broken bones

Heartless
Despondent
As I watch out my window
A silent film like boxing match
While my cat played the fight riff on my piano

The night Sarah picked me up
And we drove down the shoreline
A late night confession
A pardon
A chance to get my head right

The past two years I've seen you fall apart
A shadow
A likeness that I don't know anymore

This ain't the way it's supposed to be

Your just a ghost of what has been
You gotta get, get over it

Your selfish
No sense of focus
I feel this era has reached it's end
you're just a ghost of what has been
