about

demo for a new song i wrote last week <3

lyrics

i was bleeding out there on the pavement
in the bright harsh light of the day
just gasping for air & fading but no one was there to save me

here i go
spilling out into the tall untamed grass
a cool breeze on my back
a memory replays

here i go
walking around my childhood house
the front lights are out
but my rooms lit like day

the light house...
chimes now
too loud to say a thing

still painting out back with the roses
dandelion’s mane caught in the breeze
slipping in & out uncertain
like driftwood tidelocked at sea

there i was
flowers pouring out my mouth
raven woodblock sound
sleepin in past mid day

here i am
winstons running out the house
40 days of lifeless doubt
can this debt be repaid

wake up
stay put
it was all just a dream within a dream
it was all just a dream within a dream
