Half of my life has been spent in a cloud
I've been trying too loud
Those were the days, sweat dripping with praise
We were falsely acclaimed
Washed out skies are soaring through
The talking points go pound for pound
Deeper down, the solid ground
I'm trying to find the lightening rod
She leaves the lights on when the night comes
It's a sign of safety
She tolerates me when I'm in the sky
She comes to take me
I'm leaving promises and calling cards
Out in the wake
She leaves the lights on when I'm feral
And she's trying to tame me
Sentiment seeds get lost in the weeds
Now I'm down on my knees
Sit in the resin like trouble again
And I'm trying to freeze
Maybe it's an afterthought
I think I'd like to burrow down
Maybe if it's prominent
I wouldn't feel so goddamn shakey
She leaves the lights on when the night comes
It's a sign of safety
She tolerates me when I'm in the sky
She comes to take me
I'm leaving promises and calling cards
Out in the wake
She leaves the lights on when I'm feral
And she's trying to tame me
