These strangers will do for friends
Maybe better that way
Just know that I won't be there
When you come back someday
Stars and stripes on blackened eyes
Fold a flag close them tight
Tired lips swallowing pills
Pause to sleep..still your mind
I'm just a child acting tall
I'm at the edge over the falls
Tabloid talkshow burial
These grave machines are digging my hole
And oh I'll trade your ink for some of my blood
My head is a wreck just prop me up
Paper letters the writing turns
Lost my balance but you've got it worse
Rain and ash run down your face
With wordless grace you frown
Tears and lights flow from buildings
Lay your glass flowers down
Rack focus pushing petals (*pedals)
Drown the lotus in metal
Can anything keep me up
Above surface level
I am looking for some sanity
I am ready will you level me
Cause I am ready will you level me
I am looking for some sanity
So level me with sanity
Just level me...
