let’s keep in mind things like this happen all the time
i don’t see a reason to state the plan to change the season
we’re professionals with suits and ties and broken bones
i won’t say it irks me to see that you’re playing dirty
call off all the shots, i drive my car to the parking lot
can’t see the signs, turn around and take the night
this isn’t trying to fail
failing to try
i miss my—
i miss the details
just step out of town, it’s enough to find the ground
you don’t have to say it, we bought the scale to weigh it
waves won’t wash away the tops of peaks, the light of day
but at least they try, someone you wish i was like
don’t hold the phone it’s in the past, it’s all alone
buried under things we said, or worse the things we meant
this isn’t what i really wanted
want it to end
i miss when—
i missed it again
take the last life vest i’ll wind up like the rest
but it’s what i want to untangle all the knots
when you cross the line do not look behind
i’ll be a skeleton growing smaller with the distance
