Dusk

An eventful year, that it was
And if I'm still here, it's because

The stars have gone out from behind your eyes
This pain is real, this wound is life-size
And I can't believe it, you need to pull through
And I hope you make it, I'm waiting for you

So you are beginning to choke
Well, how can you not see the joke?

The sound of your voice still rings in my ears
It's tired and angry, and quiet all these years
This situation, it tears us apart
And we joke about it, we make jokes of ourselves

But we know
But, but we know
But, but we know
But, but we know
We know, we know, we know

One day, this will all stop
And I won't have to run or rush or push or drive
And I'll give back everything I took, and I'll kiss everyone I love
And I'll fall asleep, and I won't wake up for weeks and weeks
