From the recording Why not slowdown
Lyrics
Sky's breakin glass with the weight of the gloom
Shadows takin seats in my quiet room
Hands held to the tremble of my busted soul
Chasin echoes while I try to feel whole
Lost in a spiral got no way out
Words in my chest wanna scream can't shout
Wishing for a moon to light the dark streets
But pavement just laughs under tired feet
Oh the cracks in me won't show till I breathe
Hopes like threads lost in thorn-filled seas
I just sink try to stand worry like chains
But the light creepin through gives hope through pain
Old tree whispers in the still of the dusk
Branches bent under the weight of dust
A melody caught in the tangle of the twigs
Forgot the song but it still breaks ribs
Rain's hummin tunes on the ache in my skin
But the fire's a flicker somewhere deep within
Burst of stars that tear midnight apart
Their blaze feels the same as a battered heart
Oh the cracks in me won't show till I breathe
Hopes like threads lost in thorn-filled seas
I just sink try to stand worry like chains
But the light creepin maybe not today
The path’s foggy it ain't a straightway
Mud soaks my shoes I’ll keep walking through
Hearts ain't built of glass they mend just like new
Oh the cracks in me won't show till I breathe
Hopes like threads lost in thorn-filled seas
I just sink try to stand worry like chains
But the light creeping through gives hope through pain
