lyrics

These humid summer nights, they've grown oppressive
These thoughts of surrender, they've grown obsessive
The battle’s raged on so long, I can’t bear the stressors
This final stand has shown me the lesser

It’s alright to question these things you cannot save
Accept there’s a sadness to which we can’t relate
Know you’ll never be close enough to fix it
Some stories meet their end in the distance

This loneliness divides my thoughts like the Mississippi
I've long driven away my last bit of empathy
In solitude we arrive and in solitude we leave
Fought my best but all that’s left is to grieve

It’s alright to question these things you cannot save
Accept there’s a sadness to which we can’t relate
You know you’ll never be close enough to fix it
Some stories meet their end in the distance
Some stories meet their end in the distance

Darkness calls my name for that final bow (bout)
The fatal blow falls so hard now
These forced connections leave me flat
Two weeks left alone, lying on this mat
Two weeks left alone, lying on this mat
