lyrics

I've stopped counting the days that I heard the siren's song
always listening to them singing out
did they ever acknowledge the cries for help?

I’ve realized how transient the seasons have remained
and what I've retained; the summers ending in rain,
always the same, a dull heart throbbing pain.

I’ve become so accustomed to falls denial.

I let winter impel my empty smile.
I let it sweep me off my feet
 ignoring all the signs of deceit .
the lies are all stained like coffee rings 
in the passengers seat

of what’s left of our 94 Taraus, 
I still just abhor this. 


My mind was a slippery slope

filled with sleet and snow 

the brain always trying to cope

with the attacks when the heart pulls back

with blind love and lost hope

I just can’t relax.



I’m always misplacing spring. I’ll face my fears and summers sting. 

as I watched them come and go, one thing synonymous with you.


But was it even in reason
 for these hearts to change with the season?

I’m leaving, all this time, it’s been lying dormant
 in the back of my mind. 
It’s unsettling to say this;
that fall haunted me with 
a despotism I hardly miss

but it’s more so than I care to admit.


Fall was there to keep me warm
 through every winter or summer storm 

The nights, they bled into days. but we found a way to stitch the weeks 
to months, but the scars would stay.

It’s been 3 years now and I still don’t know what to say.
I guess I learned that absence, they fade to gray
