lyrics

another nameless morning and we're sitting by ourselves.
we're waiting for our moment like it's resting on a shelf.
we've been around a cycle, yeah we've seen a couple years.
let's call this what it its, let's recognize our fears.

push through the fallout. play this in real time.
let's not pretend like we're the softer kind.
your arms around me. my cheeks are soaked.
i'm gonna swallow even if i choke.

a pause for composure as i feel your ghost.
spin cycle of a pattern as i make believe i'm host.
i set the table. i dust your empty seat.
i know the cycle, but still i press repeat.

push through the fall out. play this in half time.
no matter where i look you're not on the other side.
a lost companion. a love that i can't know.
i'm gonna swallow even if i choke.

i gotta run. guess i'll see ya later.
