Rapid Fire |
It was a time too tired for rapid fire |
Cages spilled their guts out into the streets |
Spinal lovers solving puzzles |
Trying to breathe some life into the heat |
May the storm dissolve your presence |
Or your legend for a second while it fills your past |
Say you’re sorry for absolving |
Say you’re mad because you couldn’t make it last |
And suddenly |
I was unconscious |
Trying to pull something from this |
I looked at claws instead of birds |
And chased the meaning from the words |
Seemed like a million lauding over leveled songs |
Music whispered out of comas incomplete |
The notes are all fractured, the bars are decayed |
Carve that serenade to a lover’s leap |
May a smile convert your figure to a flow |
Or a river driving fingerprints into snow |
Say you’ll swim because the sinking requires too much thought |
Say you’ll breathe because in leaving you have nowhere else to go |
Say you’ll breathe because in leaving you have nowhere else to go |
And suddenly |
I was unconscious |
Trying to pull something from this |
I looked at claws instead of birds |
And chased the meaning from the words |
Say you’ll breathe because in leaving you have nowhere else to go |
Say you’ll breathe because in leaving you have nowhere else to go |
