Intimidated By Silence - Cars & Trains, Blue Sky Black Death

out the window i

heard the sound of the sun

and i lost myself to

all we tried to be

to recede into the sea

and open our eyes

on the coasts

and to not feel lost anymore

to stand firm like the roots of a tree

sleeping through everything

and these instruments go on

long after i’m gone

trying to make what we hold

and it comes out in song

i promised myself i wouldn’t be

in the summer i

heard the leaves in the air

wave to all the, the things we tried to be

before we fell into the sea

and forgot all of our names that echo

and these words go on

long after we’re gone

trying to paint what we see,

but it comes out all wrong

the meter of the song that i sing

loses time with the air that i breathe

through my lungs as the dust settles
