lyrics

I'm back in my own room
So many days spent out in the world.
Now is the time to think of what I'll never do.

My bed is so cold.
Been trying to warm it's tired self.
With all of the emptiness it's carried through.

So how, where, when do we leave?
I am so content, just staying here to grieve.
With all of my laments, just an eraser's best friend.
But all forms of safety must come to an end. (Except one.)

Please, oh please, pencil, let your lead lead the way.
Because thoughts become a crowd, a mob with torches, bright as day.
Write down, for just a minute, without my hand on your thoughts.
My hand has led me down a page I thought that I forgot.

Don't erase. Don't erase. (No more second chance.)

I'm back in my own world, but God, I never left.
