lyrics

although we conquered doubt, a fear might always stay inside ourselves preserving ego for a rainy day, a loneliness that sets in as we push away the work we do and ones we love until we dissipate

I know the things that you say are not the things that I want to hear but I keep drilling til there's a problem to flaunt, to get red in the face searching for saviors to hate to keep us ready and willing until we're gasping and gaunt

I know we'll talk about the future anyway, never second-guessing anyone who calls your name, a questioning without a greeting written in shame, a longing to repair since the precedent was made, but

I know the things that you say are not the things that I want to hear but I keep drilling til there's a problem to flaunt, to get red in the face looking for saviors to hate to keep us ready and willing until we're gasping and gaunt

I won't always see the things spelled out for me, whether I stay or go or feel uncomfortable
loneliness it takes a lot out of its captor regardless if it knows what it's after.
