lyrics

old souls want to go back home...

a loner eating acid in his room
slowly being captured in the mood
go to sleep to see the ocean scene of amethyst and blue
I can't dismiss the view; it has me and it's true
matchstick-stricken hue and it's pretty on the inside
I could make a crystal ball of this sky
Sit tight in the wind and foggy mist
as it skips across my skin and leaves a little mark of insight
Like, this is all you ever need here
Sleeping on the canvas and applaud November's sweet tears
make portraits full of sad art
It's priceless but they'll buy it soon for half-off
A penny to a million isn't really that indifferent
significance in irridescent picture-set experiments
I hear the arch-angel ambience
whispers say the heartbreak is transient
Coffin made and hardcased to stand in it
hand-imprint from every face I haven't kissed
before deciding to escape into the dream
"patience, if you please - I'll be back to make the distance easy.."

Nightmares'll seem beautiful at nighttime
ghost made of kerosene glooming in your blindsight
said I'd never go and label you a widow
touching on your arm while you're gazing through a window (x2)

So, don't worry, I'm closer than you think
while you vomit, stomach tightened, bending over at the sink
Focusing and thinking maybe it was your fault (no)
Your loss, but don't ever blame your poor, lost soul
standing on the edges of a elevated slate
hyperventaling in a meditative state
heaven paved the way; I bent the chained-up gate
dissociated on a better plane, I stray
away, swimming in the psychedelic waves of grace
imagination makes this empty space so great
Blank canvases and possibility
faith analyst, brain catalyst
dusty halos and rusted payphones
and it hurts my gut to say so (say so)
I go ahead and try to grab your arm and hold you
then go through your body and fall below you (unseen)
Coffin made and hardcased to stand in it
hand-imprint from every face I haven't kissed
before deciding to escape into the dream
"patience, if you please - I'll be back to make the distance easy.."

Nightmares'll seem beautiful at nighttime
ghost made of kerosene glooming in your blindsight
said I'd never go and label you a widow
touching on your arm while you're gazing through a window (x2)

Admiring this angel's vibrant skin-tone
No hesitation as I take you by the wristbone
I guess it's safe to say it's time to get home
where the dead live and their vacant lives are blissful
I'm still here; just speaking through a filter
this is what it's like to turn a scream into a whisper
I miss you much, and I'm so baffled
But, this is love's chapel...
