lyrics

I know this place too well now / I’ve stretched to fit its frame / I’ve stuck like a clog in the neck of a drain, there’s no leaving the way that I came / the audible quiet at night / the wind leaning hard on the walls / the way I still sleep on my side of the bed and hope someone and no one will call / too much mine / too much mine / I trace and trace over their lines / I trace and trace over their lines.

The bruises I don’t remember getting / the veins that show through my arms / the baffling way the shallowest cut can become the oldest of scars / too much mine / too much mine / I trace and trace over their lines / I trace and trace over their lines.

So I wake and I work and I weary / as coffee and whiskey keep time / like a piano you pay to have taken away / like dust hardened on the blinds / don’t “oh honey” me and don’t ask me what’s wrong / let me lengthen like shadows grow long / here for a while / then gone.
