Loneliness

Lyrics

A flicker of a light in an empty home
 Bickering at night and you end up cold
 I wanna let the right brain retain control
 The rhyme inspires most when it's 5 minutes old
 There's a feeling that I get when it's sad and it's grey
 Reminds me of times way back in the day
 They wouldn't call me back
 They didn't wanna play
 I ask my stepmother if it ever goes away
 So I'm sending you a message with text
 That doesn't really say it's an SOS
 Yes so I guess that I press those numbers
 To summon for a presto
 Looking for words (forwards) I spring into summer
 And wonder if you would (wood) lay around like lumber
 And supports me like a funder
 Paying attention to my pain and tension
 We all have forces pulling us under
 But somewhere beneath this world torn asunder
 We smell the storm before the thunder
 And bring angles down to earth like sunder
 And when it bursts, the loneliness feels like hunger
 Why don't you tell 'em about the loneliness?
 I'm chewin' on its vapors
 Hiding from the light
 With this basement as my base
 The opposite of a smiling face
 To chase down whatever this taste is
 I' a tweeter with a blown cone
 Wonder where the bass is
 Drawn to you on a path of penciled promises
 Found my feet inside erasers
 Praises to Rafael and St. Rita
 Try to breathe and gasp
 Try to seize and grasp
 Don't even ask if you can counsel me
 I'm a lone wold so I wear wolf wear wool
 Cut connections with irreverence
 I slither in and sever us
 I wanna be the boy who lived
 But never have no trust to give
 I must admit through busted lips
 I've sunken ships and rusted bridges
 Cut slow to the quick
 And lost myself to split decisions
 Multiply by my divisions
 Round down for the placement
 Alone in that basement
 Why don't you tell 'em about the loneliness?
