Eponymous 4

Lyrics

Even after all the light has gone
The heavy air hangs thick with drying rain
Somewhere in the hum of distant streets
A drum beats out of time and out of space

Promises were never meant to be
The ink still wet from where the page was torn
Either side not eagar to agree
On how the final outcome favors all

Somehow all the details came to be
Without a guiding hand to show the way

A single touch, a single glance
An undetermined length of time
A double take, a double shot
Of circumstances misaligned

Even after everything went dark
A heavy breath cut through the silent air
Prying eyes were never meant to see
A world so out of space and out of time

Words became the only way to see
How nothing really changed from day to day
When the story ends, a life begins
Without a history to call its own

Everything turned out the way it should
Which is to say, it turned out not at all

A single touch, a single glance
An undetermined length of time
A double take, a double shot
Of circumstances misaligned
