Stonefish

The Post War

Compositor: Não Disponível

With tin cans and bottled youth
Walking decaying
Don't let the solace fool you with
This ration offered
A consolation for your troubles
It's just a future memory lost to me

The fates allowed me to wander
A stone fish
To depths that no one knows
Is it the ground I cling to
That guides me
Or takes me off my course
You're silent
Speak to me

The dark side of summer's swell
The misguided talents of
A hopeless romantic half his age

And I wake in a violet fever
The lone child in an ever-changing world
Are you a siren, a seeker
To guide me
Or take me off my course
Your silence speaks to me

I rage inside
Until I'm sickened
Just name your price
And I'll pay it off
Until I'm gone

I dreamt in color
I walked through the valley's gaze
The desert, it lives and dies the same

And it's cause to suffer
The heat searing down my neck
A slow death that you can barely see

And I wake in a violet fever
The lone child in an ever-changing world
Are you a siren, a seeker
To guide me or take me off my course
I want to live beside you
Not face down
Shackled at my feet
When silence speaks to me
