  • spits out our voices singing,
  • “sha la la, oh, no no,”
  • to kingdom come so slightly.
  • here in the void in your place,
  • i twitch and tweak an illusion
  • to sit and stare so blankly
  • until our hope is used up.
  • why do i always seem to need you when you're fleeing?
  • where do you go when i'm around?
  • what have i done? what have i lost that's so defeating?

  • where your life and my life's directions can wrangle
  • and all of a sudden you've left me to handle
  • the reasons that never forbid me to stand tall
  • and somehow, oh somehow i found out the secret
  • to staying alive without actually breathing
