Are you gonna melt away after I'm gone? I bet you knew this one was coming, oh How you danced around the flames Pretending to be in awe of the kindling That you laid before But if I could get a word in, maybe you'd see Who was at fault last Autumn It's hard to speak with you around Don't let me fall Again Just one more cigarette, and I'm gone The pretense wasn't an obligation For me to tell you what I was on The night that you left was so surreal, but not to me Could you explain it in a way that makes more sense? It'll never make sense to me, The attachments we made could never mean anything

'It's All Over Now, Baby Blue' Played on the radio in the morning, And I didn't change the station, Even though it reminded me of you, and I put my hoodie on, and picked flowers in the parking lot And wished I knew what was happening in Louisville I love you, but I don't miss you I miss you, but I don't love you What the hell are these games, And why can't I leave the notions alone? I love how I'm emancipated, but Hate how I'm just decimated Every time my emotions say to go home There's an ocean of drifters, Talking to me in my dreams It was Semilanceata's reality I should've taken myself out then and there, But for what? The waves were never really voices anyway 'Tangled Up In Blue' Played on the radio in the evening, And I changed the station, 'Cause I couldn't bear to think about you, and I put my hoodie on, and smoked a cigarette in the parking lot And wished I knew what was happening to The October Moon I miss the clouds back home, But not the way you looked at them You were always too optimistic for me 'Cause it's the same old sky, the same old sky, From a different view, I suppose Sure, the clouds look different here, But what defines them reflects the same old sea Come to Whittleton Arch, I'll teach you something about god But I know Everything under the moon and stars you'd never believe And there is no god, there is no god, Save for a perception of self Ovoideocystidiata elsewhere Ovoideocystidiata elsewhere Ovoideocystidiata elsewhere Ovoideocystidiata elsewhere Ovoideocystidiata elsewhere Ovoideocystidiata elsewhere Sorry for bullshitting you

Lines 05:09
*** You can watch it dissolve, Everybody comes undone We don't Leave the light Still, love is for the fool, But don't give it up Cause this is it, and that's alright Or so I keep telling myself *** Step into the rift Farewell to dreaming corpses and ambition, It's all bursting at the seams I see everything as it is, and it's in stride Think you'll ever know just what that means? Anyone would be brave – and very wise To try to take away any meaning from this fall So, I invite you to fill the void There's only vacancy at the center of it all
