lyrics

I saw a ghost over my bed last night
And paralyzed I watched the static smoke above my resting place
The faceless figure stared me right between the eyes
And I felt a lifeless breath upon my face

He said "I've found nothing better
Than the words in this letter
And from what I remember
You will always be
The perfect messenger
The aid to the sender
Complete this adventure for me"
With a look quite perplexed
And a weight on my chest
I asked "is this how it must be?"
With no hesitation
And death implication
He said he would pledge to his honesty

In a sudden haze
My lungs emptied away
Left with questions unanswered
Bewitched and bewildered
Awoke to the sun in a daze
I lied beside
What may define my life
Doubts had built inside my mind
And I could not decide ‘til I said,

“I’d rather swim the seven seas
Than place my grave inside the air we breathe
If only I could expire to a place I see
Cure my curiosity
A shortcut to a sinking ship for
Me”

Cross my heart, I’m never fine
Why keep sight from the fataly blind?

This secret ever cryptic
Burns like the sun between my fingertips
If I ever wrote down what proceeds me
With certainty, I might find peace.

In seven days,
I swore I heard my name
With urgency, searching
And nothing emerging
The torment inside inhumane
All worn away
Patience turns to gray
Confiding in mirrors to find something clearer
It gives way to careless defying mistakes

I’d rather embrace swarms of bees
Than haunt the world like some monstrosity
If I could only expire to a place I believe
Cure my curiosity
A shortcut to a sinking ship for me

Right here, right now, bring clarity
A shortcut to a sinking ship for me
I just need a second to breathe

I’ve been counting the days to infinity
Consequence a vacant dream
If eyes are not good enough to read
Than I don’t see the purpose in
Trying to bet I’m not
Dying and now I’m just
Lying myself into a craze

I’d rather give up what’s left of my sanity
Than let my last breath leave me lingering
And in disparity I release what was given to me
“Always have been one to worry
Take my word, from me to me
What matters most is what we see
And the rest is yet to come”
