lyrics

And I ask nothing from photographs,
Around my neck, like the amulet of a better half
Talk to the walls, make sense of the analog
To what end does it bring you to once you've returned their call?

I held the door, and waited
Solace in company, someone to witness it
Water, to fill, water, to cure, water, to nurse, water, to drown
And the stone I bear, means not

But the truth, that I surpress
Broad shelled creature, carrying the weight of the
Water, to fill, water, to cure, water, to nurse, water, to drown
And the stone I bear, means that

I held the door, and waited
Solace in company, someone to witness it
Water, to fill, water, to cure, water, to nurse, water, to drown
And the stone I bear, means not

But the truth, that I surpress
Broad shelled creature, carrying the weight of the
Water, to fill, water, to cure, water, to nurse, water, to drown
And the stone I bear, means that

I wish I had meaning
And that life was easier
That it didn't loom over me
And that I wasn't the carrier

To expel, to cast out
The constant

Shame
That I bear )on my( name

To expel, to cast out
The Constant

Plague
I wear on my

Face, from never committing
From never following through with it
This stone I bear, it weighs on me
Eighty fucking pounds of regret to hang my shame
To bring it out of me
To show all of my demons
The fortune of living
Sings in no key with the ivy vine
