lyrics

My friend don't got hate for anyone
But they don’t know his name
He don’t smile he don’t nod at anyone
‘Cause they don’t look his way

He just walks beside them
They don’t mind him
Being outside the lines
He doesn’t talk inside their minds
Now that he's not living
He ain’t alive

Memories are my medicine and my poison
Well I would rather be just a memory
Than another one of your slow fading dreams
A broken down cemetery

Words empty graves full the rain will come
After the farm burns to the ground
A sliver of the moon may shine through the slats
But my paws can’t pry them open
I cannot see what is eating me
So the enemy is awoken

I’ll hold your hand when you walk through my graveyard
Let me be your dead words of guidance

You fall asleep and it could last for weeks
You’re dreaming in lies
You must be joking
Or something has its teeth in your mind

This ship has sank

I can walk through walls, I can see through trees
I don’t need to breathe, but I can’t see your eyes

Let the sky turn into stone
Let the sun go down.

- Brian Tucker of Star News
