My envy for the ones
So fuckin' sure that they'll live again
Fills cups and heirloom glasses;
Emptied legacies wiped clean
With the best of me
I tried for you
Down at the River
I couldn't follow through
You pulled me toward the water
I fell and dropped the anchor
And watched your shame come true
Death doesn’t know my name
That keeps me up at night, yeah
Death will not learn my name
It follows silent in the
Pouring rain
Pouring rain
You're not around
For me to test your limits
With downbeat endings oh-oh
I burned you out
Your haunted headspace
Can't process all this doubt
All this doubt
So I'll
Steal some youth back
You wouldn't believe the things I've
Seen on my path
You couldn't agree with what I've
Done with pity
I shouldn't have given up on
Nihilistic thoughts are healthy
At least for me
They work for me

An early flight to reach
15 years of haunted daydreams in this
Cycle of losing my belief
And watching my love burn down or leave
I put my hooks in deep
Savored the daylight and lost some sleep
Lost some sleep
Solana, Solana, I
I want to keep you right here with me
Solana
And thank the role models you gave me
They drew me in
Showed me what its like to feel the
Cities and the sights
The faces in
The secret gatherings
Forming
Bonds that can't be broken
In the era of emotion, screaming
You feel like home
You feel like home
From a life I lived before
Sang
My teenage anthem
Lived
That classic scene
These people I looked up to
Turned out to be just like me

I'm not certain
That I'm in this
Room right now
Room right now
Ghostly glowing
Faces peering
Nearby hear my
Fears approaching
Voices scream out in violence
Attack my numb defiance
Try to keep them locked away
Doesn't matter if I'm sleeping or I'm wide awake
Carry on from where we started
I'll miss you more
Beg to be cured
Of lonely arguments
The hell of circumstance
We're the ones to
Burn out the sun
Swallow the world so
The boys and girls
Won't have to cry no more
Self preservation and healing
Won't help with my negative feelings
Try to burn distracted days
Does it matter if I do or don't move on?
Hear me out
You're the one
Tellin me that
You are not
Comin' home
I was always one to over-analyze
I will never be the one to shield my eyes
And say "It's all fine!"
I'm not afraid of a little depression
What hurts me most is wasted time
I'm not afraid of a little emotion
But you held back some crucial lines

Step out
Alone
Into the ruined overgrowth
Of tangled trees
Stale and brittle scenes
I should apologize
For staying past my prime
But my instinct to remain
Undermines my shame
With relevance in dull decay
My thoughts are full of cliffs
and tidal waves
But it's only temporary
Even legends will weather
When you send them out
To bear the ruin
of the creeping doubt
Climbing up their backs
Sliding up their necks
Into their heads
Show forgotten truth
and tell me everything you know
About me
Good intentions left us with a failed attempt to form
A grounding
In this immediacy age
In this ever-deepening cave
I will venture out
Susceptible to time
And creeping doubt
Climbin' up my back
Slidin' up my neck
Into my head
Until I'm dead
It's only temporary

You know I'm grieving for them
Every night I lie down
See murder in my head
Well versed, well read about it all
I took a basic oath
With my stone-hearted complacency left behind
I thought you'd welcome it
But
It doesn't work like that
Let regret wash over
Drink it in
And say goodbye
Left my window open
For you to find
That there's nothing left
Of you inside
Forgiveness died
Forgiveness died
I know I'm capable
Of fighting harder for the silent innocent
Practiced gentle dissent, but
It doesn't work like that
You know that I still feel them
You know that I'm not free
of the memories of that sinking feeling
My catastrophic
lack of empathy
I still hate it
Accepting you were me
Forgiveness died
But I'm still alive
