lyrics

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
