lyrics

We try to find alright
And settle for okay
The crushing weight of words fall when I hear you say
I don't need
You can grieve me

What the fuck was I supposed to do
Walking out of my life
You can't see
Can't perceive
I can't come to terms with it myself
Do you remember

The resentment buried in your bones
Thoughts racing in your mind
How you lied
Can you try
To steer away from that apathy
Look at me
Are you even here

Your light
Still burns so bright
That you pollute any star I find in the sky
Sometimes
(Sometimes)
I briefly find a way
(A way)
But a wave of interference looms
(Interference looms)
If it's any good it's soon defused
(It’s soon defused)
I wonder if your sky does the same
Take me home

I can't recall all the things that set you off
Wallowing in your hate
A blank stare
Are you there
Nothing can ever be your own fault
Blame's always transcendent

Back to back
Atonement met with ice
Message received loud and clear
Severed ties
No goodbyes
I'll take good care of these memories that stay with me
And my fear

We want more than okay
Is there more than just alright
Thoughts racing through my head
Lingering in my mind
I don't want to

It's like you took hold of me
(And I couldn't breathe)
A darkness in stead
(When I tried to leave)
And eyes that you can't believe
It's like you took control of me
(And I can't believe)
With darkness in stead
(How I couldn't see)
And eyes that you can't believe

It's like you took hold of me
A darkness in stead
And eyes that you can't believe
It's like you took control of me
