lyrics

Is there something listening?
The claws in my chest are pulling me out towards dawn
And I am not the man I saw on the postcards
He is sleeping in and I am gone

Oh the membrane held
For sixteen years

Sleep eludes me like answers
My prayers, they go unanswered
Is there ever time to sleep where I won’t dream about
The sword that I will fall on one day
When you no longer sleep
Fitfully or at all
I no longer dream

But then I wake up screaming
This blood on my hands is the reason I keep calling out your name
Breath leaves your lungs for the last time
As i turn tail and run

Oh the membrane fell
as she called out my name once again

Sleep eludes me like answers
My prayers, they go unanswered
Is there ever time to sleep where I won’t dream about
The sword that I will fall on one day
When you no longer sleep
Fitfully or at all
I no longer dream

If I could find my peace with god then maybe he would show me the way
But I have taken what is his and you are here to stay

I no longer dream. (But for now I’ll dream)

Your face is blood, your heart is blood, your fear is blood and your love is blood i felt like blood (Something, idk cant remember this whole part)

Blue dream october, search dearly for closure since it’s the last thing that you’ll ever do. As you burned all the matches and crawled through these ashes we’ll do whatever we do, when you’re not around. My heart’s in the ground with my head in the clouds and an eyeful of sounds. The storm is now over, but there’s nothing, no closure there’s nothing. So I hope it was worth it.

I’m gonna watch you burn, I’m gonna call this off
I’ll put you in the ground and then I’ll watch the clock
You leave me behind, far better with heart
Screaming it’s alright before I tear you apart
Pointed to the sun, it has lost its touch
I used to dream in lights now maybe not so much
