lyrics

revived in dreams where I choose to live
a love is born a forced accident
I haven’t changed the sheets since you last laid with me
I wander by your street, lost soles pound concrete
I’ve carved your body clean from wood splintering
I wish that I could change the turning of the day
morose, compose letters I won’t send
slip them under the wheels beneath my bed
the residue it lasts like shadows spilled not cast
absorbing it to pass through blackened sulfur paths
gunpowder prayers cosigned to oblivion I’ve twined
I wish I could dissuade the turning of the day
a dead man’s switch, let’s slow this freight train down
lone conductor with no coal burning now
I haven’t changed the sheets since you last laid with me
the quarters that I keep house hot abhorrent sleep
from the nautical dawn to civil I am drawn
I wish that I could change the turning of the day.
