lyrics

Sometimes in sleep
You come to me
You’re slow, deliberate
Then, all at once
You’re at the door
We go

Near the bottom of the hill
The church stares at us and
I fumble for my feet
And of course my words, my words…

Usually, you leave earlier
Counting the days
Then I count the days
Counting, counting, counting, counting
It’s been a thousand days
Since you…

Lamplight lifts up your shadow
And I wish I could
Step outside my body
Put the track on pause—
Take you home
and listen to her
in the corner room again

But we couldn’t stop the future, no.
Your shine was already fading…

Sometimes in sleep
You come to me
But too often, not
