lyrics

String Of Dreams And Conversations

just wait something to relate it to that we can’t undo
you’ll start thinking in a way to stop and follow through
its too late no one can relate with you lies dressed up as true
you’ll start thinking in a way to stop and break back through

walk down the street
breathe the cold
draw the smoke into my lungs
now that you’re gone
turned to this
thoughts keep slipping off my tongue
there’s so much at stake
trick yourself
into taking a step back

how could i never ever really notice
spent the day trying just to slow it back down
how could i never ever really notice
spent the day trying just to slow it back down

sun rise on closed eyes brought me into the day
never expect to feel this way
the phone rings the salt stings it seems no end in sight
rubbing the wounds myself to spite

well don’t speak my heart creeks a ship sunk in the night
fear paralyzed yet held me tight
drunk dreams my heart screens the remanence of a thrill
city beyond my window sill

a hungry sky my windows fly into the clouds above me
within my dreams beneath the seams sewn up from my recovery
to tell the truth I followed suit and rose into the night black
and please take care, I’d bring you there if I could find my way back

yes, I’d take you with me
I’d give you the moon from the skies
for a string of your dreams conversation wise
chasing the sun down
and starting a race for the day
just to see who begins first to fade away
but when I awake dear
I start to descend, just as well,
though the smoke and the rain make it hard to tell
starlight it seems to bleed into the day, turns the earth in your eyes to an ocean grey
that seems to keep swelling and rolling back into your thoughts while somewhere in between my heart got lost
