Album: Distress Signals

Everything I Have

Good day. How’s your year been?
I’ve been learning what to say
So many shades of gray
There is comfort in these brown walls
In this empty hall a soul releases
Though I never gave it
That much thought at all
I think up things to say and
When I pray I gain no faith
So I want to be somebody else
A feather to your felt
I am lost in the sun and
Weak in the shadows holding on…

What you thought was real
And what you wanted most
Erases like a ghost
You can’t help but feel
Tied down to the shame
At the whisper of a name

I placed a secret in your palm
Whose hand will I one day hold
If I ever hold again
I have a letter marked to Abraham
There are sacrifices to be made
So many souls to save
I have a jar sealed watertight
These thoughts that keep you up at night
You just can’t perceive
It's harder to believe
