lyrics

We fell asleep to the hum of the engine, cradled in the arms of the machine. It spoke in riddles of a vengeful heaven, and left a taste on my tongue of rust and disappointment. I guess we’ve all embarrassed ourselves for a lifetime, and if this acid seeps deep enough it’ll be more like a dozen. I’ve grown tired of this graveyard we live in, this graveyard of broken glass and broken spirits. So I turn up the headphones and swim in delay, hiding in distorted waves. Soaking up the sea, drinking in the depths, just hoping to forget. Just hoping to forget I was born on land. No raft can save me now, I’m too far gone, this distance can’t be measured.
