lyrics

5 // Treading
Can I have your attention please I was wondering if you’d ever speak again
You’re preoccupied I know, I say I’m busy, at least I act so to keep from seeming like the fool, that’s treading water after you
Now waking up is easy but staying up, with the memory that used to warm my heart, is now tearing it apart, is now tearing it apart
And like a cactus blooming in the southwest, there you are
Like a father stumbling in through the doorway, here I am
Like the poor metaphor that I am, here I stand
Like the excuse of a man that I am
I will stomp my feet and shout Break this bourbon bottle to the ground and call your name as I walk out but you won’t hear a sound, not a sound
