Nails |
It’s been a couple years and a couple nails since we saw the roof fall through |
The collapse left me deaf and struggling to find what I could reuse |
Every swing beats in a rhythm |
I’m pounding away |
To get this fucking building to speak my name |
The creaks and groans only serve to show me that the walls are far past repair |
And the foundation has been rubble for an age |
The slab has cracked the surface is decayed |
Rot has taken hold |
The mould has resolved to infiltrate every single pore to the core |
It’s always hungry for more |
Gnawing away like a rat on a dead limb |
Tearing apart our last leg |
Mud logged dragging boots towards another couple wasted hours and hours and |
hours |
I’m bleeding time again |
Miles away from where we began |
The clock doesn’t move backwards when you’re hanging from the rafters |
We were burning at both ends |
We were burning |
We were on fire you and I |
We were burning alive |
It’s been a couple ties and a couple rails since you had ahold of me |
That cutline is overgrown but I’m still haunted by that ringing |
I thought I drowned you in the lake |
I thought the current dragged you away |
Flailing in the white wash I thought I pissed you right out of my mind |
And I can barely stay awake |
I’m walking wired trying to get away |
I’m falling down the staircase I used to get out of the muck and the mire |
We were on fire |
We were burning alive |
Every swing beats in a rhythm |
I cut and I grind and I wish someone would tell me what the fuck is going on in |
my mind |
I dread meeting with you every single night because the fucking sun erases |
every trace of you and I |
Every trace of you and I is erased by the pale sunrise |
