They say the dead never speak, I do not listen To the sweet nothings in the crazy world I live in I'm in a flush gray seattle on monday the sun rays chase the shadows up hills With a child-like feeling, catch me if you can it's a fight rhetoric Dancing on command of the night's setting Fancy what you have, it's the zeitgeist yet again In hindsight to find my cause of death I chased my dreams then I lost my breath - get it? Am I clever with the words? Does it really matter when you're entering a hearse? Look, I'm alone in the coma from the methadone Searching for a saint that was frozen in a bed of snow And then I'll excavate the set of bones, easy to eat Easy to go, better late than never though Here we go again, we can call it my defeat When my tongue is in my cheek for a solid ninety weeks Swallow pride and grief, that's all I really had Just so I can understand that is all I can be And from a birdseye view, sixteen shots and I'll earn my dues Sixteen shots and the world I knew a resting plot for the kerbside blues I see a city trapped in amber full of all the joy and misery that's captured Bright lights emitting in a pattern by the fireflies like a symphony of lanterns
