I still don’t know what to do today
Improv everything along the way
I just wanna tell you how I feel
But I don’t even know where to start
That look in your eyes turns me to stone
They warm my soul on nights so cold
Maybe one day this can be real
But I don’t even know where to start
I’ll give up everything I’ve worked for
Throw everything I own out the door
Tear down the walls and burn the fields
If I could just have a place in your heart

We don’t always get the happy ends we wanted
Sometimes we can’t even get out of bed
There were times when the skies were vibrant
Now all around me are pale shades of red
I wish I could have said what I meant to
Instead of beating around the bush for an hour or two
I wish we could have talked this over longer
But I can’t take back the words that burned you
The world turns while I’m locked in silence
It’s June but I’m trapped in April
Replaying this phone call over and over in my head
Just to see if I can do right by you
I’ve done a fair bit since we parted ways
Worked some shows, dropped a song and went on tour
But the thing that starts to sting me the most
I lost the best friend that knew me to the core
I won’t reach out but I’ll be watching from afar
I’ve been told its the best I can do for you
I wish that we could be happier people
But the moving on is the hardest thing for me to do
The world turns while I’m still locked in silence
It’s August but I’m still trapped in April
Replaying that phone call over and over in my head
Just to see if I could do right by you
God damn could I ever do right by you

Every night when she goes to sleep
She hears the train horn rolling by
It doesn't seem to follow a time
And it doesn't sound the same
It feels like a curse has consumed her head
The seat of her soul, her personal hydra
Been going on since last year
She can't quite figure out why
Her dreams are always vivid and lush
Like living many lifetimes now
She finds herself often wondering
About these intravenous lives
Last month when she moved it still
Haunted all her nights and thoughts
She don't dare speak of it to her
Family or friends
Oooooooooo
Reality, its bounds
Don’t seem to matter much these days
Oooooooooo
When dawn breaks through
Maybe she will feel fine
Her world consists of puddles and mirrors
She sees herself everywhere she goes
The cracked reflection, consciousness
Staring at her soul
Sense of self is a shifting plane
And sense of right is a sliding scale
The boundaries between us are
Always in our heads
She thinks aloud often about a
Life without any doubt, changing
The roundabout thoughts that spout
Around endlessly inside her brain
The fear set in when she realized
That she was not the only one hearing this
That the mortal dread was not unfounded
It’s in the heart of all she knows
Every night when she goes to sleep
She hears the train horn rolling by
It doesn't seem to follow a time
And it doesn't sound the same
Every night it gets louder and louder
Drowning out her sleep and thoughts
And one day she'll realize
She's more than a reflection

I called out of work today
Not sure why
Said I had a stomach bug
Just a little white lie
Still hearing occasional sounds in my head
Like tinnitus or that train
The struggle to get up each day
Exacerbated by the rain
Struggling to keep up seems
Like the name of the game
And no matter what, I fall
All the same
