lyrics

Hollowed face stranger
Just who might you be?
In the mirror, something’s crying
With the same eyes as me

I studied his face as
He spat in the sink
I watched the foam that sizzled slightly
Then observed it was pink

My weekly dinner
Of popcorn and Coke
Every Friday, like communion
That I took as a joke

That tallied the weekends
When time had no hands
To count the passing of the days spent
With no decisions or plans

Memories are slippery
But I’ve clung to one like a shadow
Hunts the heartbeat of a man
On the run

The thin poly film of
An envelope pane
There in the devil’s favorite typeface
Is my address and my name

Remaining balance
The largest sum yet
Final notice, printed boldly
I’m breathing fast and reading slowly

I recalled the names from
The badges they wore
As they pointed me to follow
A yellow line on the floor

That ends in the corner
To watch the bag drain
I taste a coldness as the poison
Drags the blood through my veins

Why am I programmed
to feel like I do
Tell me master, am I broken?
Wasn’t I built by you?

Silence is golden
But nothing quite roars
Like a sunset reflected
In those wild eyes of yours

That peak from the blanket
And make my skin feel
Like it’s been dipped into something sacred
While the gods held my heels

Wilder than the fires
That burned on TV
The sound was muted, but I could hear it
I was the forest and I could feel it

Each time you leave me
I say it’s the last time I
Let you cause I’m certain that
I’ll repeat my past

When my check gets delivered
And the law gets off my back
I can build us a place to call home

Until the hope in my soul
I just mine and not something they say that I stole
Nothing feels certain
I don’t know if I’m hurtin’ or healed
