Everything has come full circle.
You’re standing where I stood
And you remember those times
That everything was so good.
The taste so sweet of your lips.
To feel the lines of my face.
When everything seemed alright.
Now, it’s all out of place.
But, do not sell out yourself.
Do not fade away.
Do not take off your face.
No one sees you anyway.
Cause this is how we’re broken,
Standing here in the rain.
Close your eyes and hear this
As you don’t mean to say,
“Every single day
Covered with embers.
Leads up to today.
Here now, November.
Carry bowls of whey.
Work relieves your stay.
Then, give them all away.
This is how to pray.”
This is how to pray.
Some might take joy in your pain.
God, I know how that goes.
But, the laughter you might endure
Is their soul as it echoes.
And you think that you’ll never be right
Cause you’ve forgotten how to breathe.
And it all falls down when you realize
That you’ve forgotten how to teach.
But, do not sell out yourself.
Do not fade away.
Do not take off your face.
No one sees you anyway.
Cause this is how we’re broken,
Standing here in the rain.
Close your eyes and hear this
As you don’t mean to say,
“Every single day
Covered with embers.
Leads up to today.
Here now, November.
Carry bowls of whey.
Work relieves your stay.
Then, give them all away.
This is how to pray.”
This is how to pray.
Just forgive yourself,
That’s all tonight.
Tomorrow’s too far off
To try to fight.
Just love yourself.
No need to bite
Your vanilla lips.
This kiss goodnight.
