We’re all obligated to the sunrise
Drowning in the floodlights
Waiting for a punch line
Forever running from an apathetic mud slide
Swallowing the medication; anything to unwind
I can feel the limits of our bloodline
What I wouldn’t give to overcome it even one time
Some nights, I’m excited for the sunshine
Other nights I’m counting paces for a gunfight
-
Dream to feel the privacy of darkness
Listen to your conscious
Seemingly it’s harmless
Always falling for the beautiful and heartless
Part happenstance
Part emotional catharsis
Difficult to think it wouldn't be regardless
As if any artist
Could even say what art is
Enough to leave a constellation starless
Wilt away The Harvest
Topple your colossus
-
Shoulders growing tired always holding hope
Lonely on the open road
Better than a broken home
Graduated from the bottom of the totem pole
There’s nothing they can take from you, stop being so emotional
Warm your hands above the fire in a stolen coat
Try to blow your swollen nose
Coughing with a frozen throat
Never bothered reading any of his horoscope
Figured it was blowing smoke
Either way the omen shows
