Well your words, they cut deep like this smoke in my lungs 
from the man in the alley selling me love. 
I remember that springtime when you held my hand 
Saying “Don’t be afraid, you’re not runnin’ from me again.”

Oh no, I’m not afraid of being alone. 
After staying with you, I damn near jumped off this wall. 
Oh these Sirens still sing and a man still will fall 
After giving his blood to a seemingly delicate heart.

Take me back, take me back, to this past I have tamed. 
To the blurry, black cover of night where we laid. 
Oh, your moon and your stars, they lied once again; 
You’re the compassionate one, and I’m the devil’s friend.

Oh these Sirens still sing and a man still will fall 
After giving his blood to a seemingly delicate heart.

Hypocrit

I think the end is drawing near. 
We’ll sleep for thousands of years in once sprawling fields. 
Our hands held, buried in dirt. 
Oceans rising and angels falling, from cascading pillars we’ve made. 
I swear it hear it all the time. 
When clouds come crashing to Earth, when planets align. 
Rip apart, then the noise will subside. 
In the silence, the warm dust will settle, our names never spoken again.

I dreamed again of you today 
And all the things you would say to make me believe 
In pushing the others aside. 
I stood in line and saw you swept away by the moon and the currents it made.

Arms stretched towards you to say, I’m sorry. Too late. 
You were swallowed by blue, that beautiful blue. 
A man is screaming beside the road that’s divided 
And split into two. I jumped into it too.
