if i could wipe the grime away i'd leave the rest just the same i'd find a way to skew what's left to make it seem it's for the best could never, could never see (the seams that needed stitching) could never, could never see (there's something that's been missing) we march in step, walk straight in line we march in step, our hands are tied was there a sieve they could trickle through and out the other side they'd be someone new was there a sieve they could trickle through they could drip and drip, few by few and i've been wishing it ever since that i could be the one convinced that it wouldn't just repeat itself don't want their lot in life how do you expect us not to blame ourselves was there nothing else, was there nothing else that it wouldn't just repeat itself don't want their lot in life how do you expect us not to blame ourselves was there nothing else, was there nothing else and all the echoes in my head they keep me from believing again they ripple back and forth preventing me from ever wanting more a broken home splintered in four that day i spoke alone when i thought that we'd be okay

the swollen dreams of each shape and size i pictured them adorned in black and white but they bend themselves now instead of bloom and spend each night howling at the moon it was a mess but it was ours, it wasn't emptiness it was a mess but it was ours, it was ours to fix (patterns don't predict) four hands and feet were tethered in their sleep untied apart so that our eyes won't meet i don't raise my voice, i don't stand too proud i don't own a shovel, i don't stir the ground it was a mess but it was ours, it wasn't emptiness it was a mess but it was ours, it was ours to fix (patterns don't predict) i was fixed, i was stuck in place (you don't speak too loud) deaf to all, no time of day i was fixed, i was stuck in place (or i don't hear too well) deaf to all, no time of day we're ten people at once with ten places to be just a crisis of youth just a crisis of youth four hands and feet were tethered in their sleep untied apart so that our eyes won't meet i don't raise my voice, i don't stand too proud i don't own a shovel, i don't stir the ground it was a mess but it was ours, it wasn't emptiness it was a mess but it was ours, it was ours to fix i inflate your lungs, i remove the doubt i move the air in and out, in and out i inflate your lungs, i remove the doubt i move the air in and out, in and out but this sadness will not consume me i won't let it, i won't let it these are all the nights i will not forget, i will not forget i'm old but now we're young make the best of it, make the best of it suspended like a moon above, hanging there that takes it's time coming down these are all the nights i will not forget, i will not forget
