I woke up out of sync
Human tears human thoughts I think
no more
I woke up beyond the grave
of all our promises we made
but never kept
The doors locked now
I’m not coming back
You move this way
You move like colors soaking up the fray
On my blanket
On my head
In those memories
When I go to bed
The doors locked now
I’m not coming back
Those thoughts I had thought
Long ago I don’t know
If I think them now
Maybe I don’t know
Where they go
or where I go
I woke up out of sync
Human tears human thoughts I think
no more
I woke up beyond the grave
of all our promises we made
but never kept
The doors locked now
I’m not coming back
