lyrics

I see you sometimes before i go to sleep. You slide your way between my sheets. You grab my hand and drag me out of bed into that empty street i've seen inside my head. But maybe these nights are just a dream and you'll never really come for me. You'll never come for me. I've ran this street too many times and every time i run in circles. I've seen it all before. But i'll keep running and wait my turn, but my soles are calloused, my heels are black and worn. Sometimes i think you're with me. Sometimes i convince myself i'm crazy, and truthfully i probably am. You've stripped my head clean of all reason. You've left me stranded in a different season. 'Cause every turn i take on this empty track brings me closer to you and there's no turning back. I might as well take one last breathe and count my blessings, 'cause everything's a mess and i'm near dead already. This is a preemptive, shitty auto-eulogy, and i'll keep praying that you'll come for me. But i'll keep running and wait my turn, but my soles are calloused, my heels are black and worn. Sometimes i think you're with me. Sometimes i convince myself i'm crazy, and truthfully i probably am. I'll keep running and wait my turn, but my soles are calloused, my heels are black and worn.
