Blankets
House by the nightstand
Another slow drive to the station
Save me the seat beside the window
Let me feel alive before it's time to go
Start with the trees
A blurry wasteland
Free from the bones imagination
Winds down
"Mind the gap." says the marshal
Drag my lead balloons until I give once I get home

It's hopeless
Some nights I feel it moving
I wake up to see it staring
Intentions and disappointments
Leaves me shaking

Tomorrow's the same
You know where I'll be
With heavy eyes pretending that I'm still alive
Say need a miracle give me a big catastrophe
I can't breathe outside of my bedsheets
Now the film reel is turning slow
Youth flickers black and white
Beholding time as pure as gold
Apologies
Light the fuse free me from my fate
I need a tragedy to save me

Sinking floating in the fish tank
I'm holding all the cards you've been dealing
But there's a conscious that just keeps me from swimming
I can hear you knocking
On the glass
Keep it coming break and shatter
Take us back
The castle I've been circling
The water that you hold me in
Bracing for the impact
Welcome back
To the aftermath

Tomorrow's the same
You know where I'll be
With heavy eyes pretending that I'm still alive
Say need a miracle give me a big catastrophe
I can't breathe outside of my bedsheets
Now the film reel is turning slow
Youth flickers black and white
Beholding time as pure as gold
Apologies
Light the fuse free me from my fate
I need a tragedy to save me

The misery
The agony
Set the tacks
Tie the yarn to our calamity
Finally
We get to see
A different sequence in the routine

Where did we go?
Same old block
Same old town
Same old show
Is the cost worth the trade?
We shouldn't know
For another three wishes
Without an audience survivor's guilt has me losing it

See the names behind each number
Try to keep a tally some time
Down the line you'll say it's glory
Rather be known as a weathered stone
With lead balloons tied to each hand
That's why we never feel anything

That's why we never feel anything
