Out of town receptions
Just in time for dead end dreams
Seeing your reflection wavering
In the summer heat
A day in bed's a day well spent
Kicking memories around, instead of rocks
Inside my head
That I'm too sick to forget
If you left so easily, then everybody near to me
Will want to do the same without any restraint
Ain't that a kicker when theres nothing left to do
Except for watching candles flicker, dying just like me and you
You lock yourself in truck stop bathrooms
Cause you can't deal with the view
Of seeing anything the interstate
Just has to offer you
The only time you would conclude that you didn't want to die
Was when we'd smoke too many blunts and inevitably get too high
How do you think of someone in a positive light
When every word, text or shoulder shrug becomes a fight
Run away tonight
I'll retreat under the covers where the moon can never speak
And I would listen to the sun, but it never talks to me
So I'll take one for the morning and I'll take one for the night
Because I can see the stars and I still don't feel alright
It seems like all things tragic start with an eclipse
And if the sun can disappear then I'm scared for the end of this
Will I rise to heaven or fall back down to the Earth
Will your trip be pleasant?
I guess we get what we deserve
They say that nothing gets better when you hold onto the blue
Now i'm just as cold as you
I don't know the words to say
An outcast in a menagerie
Struggling for identity
But you left me breathless, staggering
Washed your hair out of the sink
Memories spun down so slowly
A parasite in your bones
Deeply rooted to the feeling that youll never know
Standing all alone on this palette again
Expelling the leeches thriving on the end
And the shame they brand from within
Burns the shape of an A on your skin
