lyrics

Lay in bed for hours awake, usually quick to dream
Now a struggle to let go

Awake I fight off hate
Asleep I laugh, like an early track
A different take
From the construct that I know

What if we could stay here through the spring
The garden beds need water to stay green

By the time it hits October
The falling leaves will make believe they’re going home
To the construct that they know

If we believe we’ll never die here
Then why avert our gaze acknowledging the dread

Hanging on or letting go
Surrender, let it flow
Straight through your very soul
The construct that you know
