sisyphus Lyrics

Let me shake you awake

Baby why're you dreaming in the day

I float in with the haze, sink in like a stain

Try to wash me out but I get brighter as you fade

You still chasing the ache

Question how your flowers turn to snakes

Hold me till I break

I'd have a lot to say

If you didn't push me down, pretend that it's okay

I'm the ghost you'd like to slip your mind, I know

When the flowers bloom, they'll disguise the pieces of me that were left behind

You hid me away and stared at the light

When the grave digger buried me alive

I clawed at the dirt and let my spirit rise

To watch your sweat and the strain in your shoulder

As you marked my grave with Sisyphus' boulder

I'm out of sight in your face, but I know that you feel me in your veins

Scratch at me in sleep, pray your soul to keep

For when you close your eyes you see me

Brighter than a flame, clean through your chest,

Give me a name

I'm the ghost you'd like to slip your mind, I know

When the flowers bloom, they'll disguise the pieces of me that were left behind

You hid me away and stared at the light

When the grave digger buried me alive

I clawed at the dirt and let my spirit rise

To watch your sweat and the strain in your shoulder

As you marked my grave with Sisyphus' boulder

Don't fly too far

Nobody's gonna catch you when you fall

They wouldn't even notice at all

Don't fly too far

Nobody's gonna catch you when you fall

Nobody knows you at all
