lyrics
It’s hard to say which door you closed
Window open left me exposed
Hard to say what started the fight
Maybe my neglect or lack of insight
Hard to know why you never spoke up
Why you were cold to my touch
I’m sure there are answers hidden
in between the inhale
Under the tongue of a female
Like you nothing is safe
Could be pleasure and purpose
Or could be razor blades
Still I stay
Say the wrong thing and step back
Give the sun time to shine
Give your fists time to react
I’ve been broken forever
I’ve broken forever
I’ve broken into treasure
That can only be measured in measures
And still the mess is attractive
It’s what keeps us captive
I’ve been so committed to loving you
If you ever leave I don’t know what I would do
And I don’t need to explain
Why I’m lost inside my own veins
Blue to red but I won’t complain
No matter how bad the pain takes my breath away
You’ve been by my side
By our bedside
By and by and never wasted a moment alive
Smoke by the wayside
Chamber hot from shots gone too high
Truth is, gravity is a manipulation
It’s the invisible chain that’s got me wasted
Pulling the weight the world
Pulling the voice of my girl
Out of the air and onto the tape into a digital blur
Waxing poetic about a pathetic aesthetic
You started a movement but never accepted the credit
Now we watch the ceiling fan spin
Pretend to put the 45 to the needle
Drift away to the war drums of my people
