Lines In The Sky

Album: The Confluence (2023)

  • Standing over you, and your little lost dreams
    Shot through paper rolled, and delivered straight to your brain
    Them hot summer nights, with no cool air streams
    You toss and turn, and you wonder where you'd gone insane
    If you know that you are, caught up in red tape
    Pulling out your hair, screaming in the mirror, like Joan of Arc up in flames
    Them lines in the sky, you know I drew them for you
    Behind a lock and key, lies of certainty, I found you
    Hanging from a ledge With no easy way down
    I'd throw you a rope, but I think you might choke
    Before you ever hit the ground
    So you're down and out Well, what is this twisted world?
    Honey, can't you see, there's a void left in me where time stands still?
    Whether here or far, you got a way of counting stars
    Most times I sit and pray that you'll begin to count on me!
    If you're here or far, I'll be where you are
    When them stars begin to hear and see
    In my dreams don't you know that you are, all I ever need!
    Floating through the halls Wishing you'd fucking call
    Thinkin' bout' a time as I recall, you seemed happy to me
    In this rut, that we are, well is there a breaking heart?
    Or am I the only one, who's pretending they're willing to see?
    In a broken home, layin all alone You'll pretend you're lying next to me
    In my dreams don't you know you are, all I ever need! Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
