lyrics

"I can see the hospital from here" we sing as the sun begins to sink
It haunts the city with its shadow beneath a skyline turning pink
If I stay here any longer they'll bury me beneath San Marcos cemetery

A holy ghost
I drank the water
This is me wishing you well
I made the most
Of losing a barter
But you could never tell

I didn't want to be a bitter thing
I would brave the loneliness that Autumn brings
I'm trying to find some in-between
The gluttony, the suffering

It's like shattering your kneecaps
And breaking both your legs
It's praying to a god that doesn't hear a fucking word that you say
On clear days I can see the ocean from the hills that we used to climb
I could drain the shoreline
I can't feel anything at all
I turned out to be nothing
Oh, God

Will we ever reclaim our souls from the ashen ring that sleeps beneath Double Peak
Only time can tell
From phantom lips that speak
"I'm over this, it's just memories"
This is me wishing you well
