Condition 11:11
(album: The Great Depression)
I had no idea what I was after, I´m just preparing for disaster with everything feeling so far away. Familiar faces, familiar lips, is there any point to this hanging around?
I was upset when that glass broke doing the dishes. At 11:11 every night I make wishes. Habit and superstition feed my foolish fires; they´ve been burning for a couple of months.
I stay out all day to keep these thoughts away. Why don´t you give my feet a break and come back?
I remember in the kitchen when you told me your grandma died. That´s when I realize it gets worse. I want to wish things last forever, won´t you thicken my soft skin, you comfort me so and I remember, remember
When I walk through that door I won´t hear the happy sounds anymore. This year took so much away and won´t give it back.
