lyrics

I forget everyone
I become everyone
Slit knife
Something to call my own
A suicide sparks the winds have told
Wake me up
Hold my hand
A reaching hand
I’m following the sun
I’ve burnt every one that I’ve ever loved
Stitch me up
Thread and needle
Between breaths
Hair like a birds nest
My eyes adjust
Tell me red and green
What's so special about my hand
Dichotomy
Take nothing seriously
Being overly serious
Talking between coughing
Vampire teeth
And nothing on TV
I tried so hard to remember
But it's all in the past
Branches broken
And bent
Cripple the ghost
I recognize myself on the street
Staring at the pavement smiling
Nothing Special
Drown of boredom
In mountainside town
Cripple the ghost
Nothing special
Cripple the ghost
I once had by my side
