What I’m listening to...


Hands trembling, shadows falling
Whisper in the void
Is it calling?
Can't see the sun
Can't feel the rain

Buried under the weight of my name
Every breath feels stolen, feels the same
Tell me, am I too far?
God, I'm breaking
God I'm aching
Save me from myself
I'm drowning
I'm screaming
Save me from this hell
My heart's bleeding
Still believing
I'm crying out
Crying out
Save me from myself

Night swallows the light
I'm alone when the mirror cracks
But it's my throne
Reflections of a life I can't reclaim
These chains are heavy, my soul is tired
My faith flickers but it's not expired
Tell me, are you still there?
 

I find the map and draw a straight line
Over rivers, farms and state lines
The distance from A to where you'd B
It's only finger lengths that I see

I touch the place
Where I'd find your face
My fingers in creases
Of distant dark places

I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I've found so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in science

Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me

And miles from where you are
I lay down on the cold ground and I
I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms
