IN FEAR, ETC.

One day I'll be more flesh than bone

You'll be someone I used to know

You're remains in my new belt holes

Nights alone

In loose clothing I wait

And have you appear in my thoughts

Is solitude a lightning rod?

You'll be there but I will not

I left my body not too long ago

Parliaments we'd ash where we sat used to talk

Holding back some words

Grew up in fear of god

Thought of you as soft spoken and my love

Thought of myself as ours

He'd say don't you write this

We're raised in separate guidance

We came from different vices

And mine will talk to me

In my sleep, my dreams, when I'm awake

Until I'm 27

From another life

It wasn't right to keep me around

Nothing about you I recognize

Was it hard to find a souvenir worth lying for? (Worth lying for)

Do you remember what you were like?

Is that who I remind you of?

Shorter hair and wider eyes

High hopes of who we'd become

I know he wouldn't like this

But we're beyond politeness

He craves a hollow silence

Cause he'll hear honesty

In his sleep, his dreams, when he's awake

Until he's 27

And we were good back then

Was it all pretend?

And it's been so long since we were kids (we were kids, you and me)

You been good since then?

We'll never be again

I'll never be again

I'll never need you again

I'll never see you live
