Now That I'm Stuck at #27 - The Murderburgers

Sitting in the kitchen at 4am with the light off

Trying to remember what it’s like to feel alive

Maybe if I go outside and attempt to retrace your steps around The Meadows

Then I might trigger something that will take my mind off

All these sandstone buildings and grey skies

That do their best to keep me dead

But never quite lock my feet to the ground

Now all my halfhearted goodbyes keep replaying in my head

Now that I’m barely ever around, and now that everyone is leaving

I stayed up until 5:20 and listened to the shipping forecast

To remind me of when I slept with a smile

But nowadays I barely sleep at all

I just lay awake with all these regrets

And let them burrow in and expand that hole in my chest

I never even knew that you had plans to go

I was too busy fighting myself to even know

So I guess this won’t be the last time that I’m breaking down on the Peace Mile

Now all these sandstone buildings and grey skies

Have got me by the throat

And there’s no other way to go but down

And all my halfhearted goodbyes

They don’t mean shit, they’re all redundant

Now that no one’s left around

My pulse is nowhere to be found

I’ve given up on color and sound

And buried my heart underground

I wonder if you’ll ever come back

But when does anybody ever come back
