Rest your head in the water
The noise will pass with time
You raised me right
By your side
I am fine
I know
You’ve been through a lot now
And it shows
Cause you’re a mess when you talk now
And she knows
You’ve carried all that weight around
And your love
Has said everything out loud
Rest your head a bit longer
They only come at night
They’ll return to the darkest corners
Once the sky meets first light
I know it keeps you awake all the time
I wish I could delete those years for you
No matter when you’re scared or feeling alone
I am still right here with you
I know
You’ve been through a lot now
And it shows
Cause you’re a mess when you talk now
And she knows
You’ve carried all that weight around
And your love
Has said everything out loud

I’m the first and only son
In a life that’s only just begun
Estranged is the state of our house
And I built a wall to close you out
Now we’re strangers by default
And I locked my heart deep inside a vault
I once held you high and well
But now I’m growing old enough to tell
I still love you now
But I hate the way you turned out
I still want you around
But how long til I am filled with doubt
But I always tell myself how
I can’t quit on you now
We dissolved like rocks on the shore
Broken down over many storms
As my body turns to sand
I can feel the waves take me by the hand
I exposed my heart to you
Hoping that you’d pull through
You said that it was a choice
I still hate the sound of your voice
I still love you now
But I hate the way you turned out
I still want you around
But how long til I am filled with doubt
How long will this last
Killer of your own past?
Biding time in Hell
But silent is the cry for help
I can't quit on you now
I can’t quit on you now

Here We Are

I saw your body lying in a wake at work
When they played your favorite song, it made things worse.
And it makes me wonder how your playlist might sound like
At the funeral we hold for you after you die
Its funny how fast, I reduced to tears
I called to make sure you’re still right here
Its a tangible daymare that I’ve never had
Your favorite song was never this sad
I never used to think I’d live past 25
I still don’t know, if I’ll ever live to see you die
But there’s bitter-sweet comfort knowing I’ve come this far
I never thought I’d make it here, but here we are
And this is just the first of many bad dreams that I have
Where I lose someone for good, and I swear I can’t ever get them back
I’ll prep for the worst, and hope for the best
Cause something is taken whenever I am ahead
The path to the future fuels most of the dread
These thoughts will never vacate my head
But I never used to think I’d live past 25
I still don’t know if I’ll ever live to see you die
But there’s bitter-sweet comfort knowing I’ve come this far
I never thought that I’d make it here, but here we are
And I’m really doin just fine
Tell my family and friends
That I can finally make the time
To think about them

I tried to stop this sickness in me
Self discovery
First thought of a boy now I see
This feeling will never leave
Will never leave
Only had myself to blame
Nothing is the same
Now I’m ashamed
Of being here
I hate it here
As my hands fold I ask why me
But He never speaks
Yeah we never speak
Can I have their simplicity
This feeling was never free
Yeah it took from me
This love came at a cost
My innocence lost
Now I hate my thoughts
Cause I was confused from the start
“It’s not my fault”
I fell apart
Internally I’m lost
I hate it here
I cannot love
The same way everyone else does

Restrained
Body
Confined space
Living
In fear
Nothing is safe
Descend
Drowning
Sinking sound
This lake
Invites you in
Pulling you down
I
Hope you find
A way out
And time
Will reignite
The fire in our eyes
It’s apparent
That you are Lonely
With all of those friends
Keeping you company
Hold your breath
A little longer
There is air
Once you wake up
And I
Hope you find
A way out
Time
Will reignite
The fire in our eyes
All they ever see is red
Wishing they would dream again
But they can’t
So I
Hope you find
Your way back home
Bodies all around
Tied to cinder weights that hold them down
I can’t save you now
Tethered to the mind again
Fear of moving on from this
Vicious circles in the head
Waiting for an end
Tethered to this place again
This comatose is caving in
Vicious cycles in the head
Waiting for an end
I hope you
Find a way out and
Time will reignite
The fire in your eyes
Tethered to the mind again
Fear of moving on from this
Vicious circles in the head
Waiting for an end
Tethered to this place again
This comatose is caving in
Vicious cycles in the head
Waiting for an end
