I want more than this
I need more than this
What the fuck... I deserve more than this
Where did I go wrong?
***
225 on the pitch black tarmac
Eyes wander past the verge
The world's a blur, descending sideways through glass panes
I close my eyes just to see
There's a ghost in the trees
And it's calling for me
Headlights off; I'll let the moon decide
Is there a corner coming?
Cradle my life in your crescent light
Guess I'll live to last the night
I want more than this
I want more than this
I see them in their state of bliss
I want more than this
Will they find me in pieces,
Or will you help me find peace?
I need more than this to exist
I want more than this
225 on the pitch black tarmac
Eyes roll back, can't save me now
Even as day breaks, my pupils adjust
To the light, but it's the hole in my soul that dilates
One last breath just for old time's sake
...fuck's sake, I can't even catch that / / /
Why does this pain make me feel so real
When the joy that I find feels fleeting and false
No pulse
But these rhythms I make
And they're barely enough to get me through the day
No way out of this cave I've dug for myself
Or so they say
Head for higher ground
Way up high above the grey
Above the fog that loves to hide your way
