Petechiae Lyrics

I've been throwing up pills

That stop my gums from bleeding

My hips are still bruised

But at least I'm still breathing tonight

I'm still walking through parking lots

I'm still walking through

In the meantime, all these headaches

Are just repeat trips to the ER

In the meantime, I'm just footsteps

On linoleum hospital floors

Hospital trips are mundane now

I get blood tests, and checkups, and groceries

I'm still making treks down, when the haze of the skyline

Fades out with the death

Of the summer heat

I watch my blood drain into vials

Wrapped in coban and fluorescent light

I sit in silence, the nurse counts my platelets

Then tells me that I'm still alive

In the meantime, all these headaches

Are just repeat trips to the ER

In the meantime, I'm just footsteps

On linoleum hospital floors

I was young, I was healthy, I was destined do great things

I was never meant to wilt with the seasons

I was supposed to be evergreen

In the meantime, all these headaches

Are just repeat trips to the ER

In the meantime, I'm just footsteps

On linoleum hospital floors

I was young, I was healthy, I was destined do great things

I was never meant to wilt with the seasons

I was supposed to be evergreen
