lyrics

You see me up high
I said to my heart
“Please be faithful.”
Dead ends got me running—
or am I out of time?

Red light on
In this onyx hole
Where we all will fall

This time I’m signing off
I will ask one last goodbye
The weight of smoke inside
You won’t find me awake

I won’t be myself again
Never be myself again
I won’t be myself again

And I don’t ever bleed
Anything but blue
And I don’t ever
No, I don’t bleed anything
But blue

You sent me to fight
I severed my heart
No grace here
Dead men I see running—
Am I next in line?

Head sewn on
In this onyx soul
Where we all will fall

Today I’m mauling all
On a land of naked crime
This heavy flag won’t rise
It made no martyr shake

I won’t be myself again
Never be myself again
I won’t be myself again

And I don’t ever bleed
Anything but blue
And I don’t ever
No, I don’t bleed anything
But blue

All my life, I waited for something
Waged for nothing
An endless umbra

All my life, I continue to brace for it
Never forget it
A haunted number

All my life, I wanted something
Never forget it
Never said it

Years go on and on
I can’t see my future
Years go on and on
Inside, I am fading out
