Lyrics
Sleep
If sleep's what you need
I know I'm wrong, I've heard your pleas
Time splays
And nothing ever falls in place
And as I grab the keys
The dark bursts and bleeds
It stains my shirt, I grit my teeth
What is your pain,
If nothing's ever going to change?
Is home a bone you break?
Well, home is such a vengeful word to say
Bombs
This dawn and beyond
The leaves are cautionary blonde
Time beams
A sunset through the suffering trees
Abandon and reprieve
You mean more to me
I rattle with my disbelief
What is my pain,
When you can show the whole world change?
Is home a choice you make?
Well, home is such a perfect word to say
