I see your mother stare right past us
I can picture you peering over tinted glasses
And I feel like a wicked bastard
Standing by your wicker casket
can hear your fragile laughter
As wine bends time, us made of plaster
The river finds it’s drunken master
The fear you felt before the breathless after
the way
The waves
Reverberate
Down my frame
A quake
Across my vertebrae
I may subvert my simple senses
Some sensational relief
But the subtle serendipity
Gets caught between my teeth
So when I go to bed
I can’t even think to sleep
Cause all that’s in my head
Are the monsters underneath
the way
The waves
Reverberate
Down my frame
A quake
Across my vertebrae
But I love my friends
They make me feel alive again
Or at least they remind me
I’m not even dead
But I’ve felt so old
So hardened and cold
Maybe the gaps will snap back
But synapses fill with mould
Love could be the glue that holds the cracks together
Or just inhale the fumes
Make your synapses feel better
Let the chemicals breakdown
The white between the grey
As your ventricles collapse
And the flack takes down the plane
the way
The waves
Reverberate
Down my frame
A quake
Across my vertebrae
But I love my friends
They make me feel alive again
Or at least they remind me
I’m not even dead
But I’ve felt so old
So hardened and cold
Maybe the gaps will snap back
But synapses fill with mould
