Forever waiting for disaster
What David calls servant and master
Will you play it too?
As this displacement begs for water
Swimming, bathing
Drowning in sorrow
Scream with me
I crawl across this cracked expansion
I’ll be buried soon
Beneath the sand with pure intentions
Wanting something, someone to follow
For a change I?ll refrain from hiding all of me from you
(Here’s my lullaby)
Pray for rain, lose your name
And watch all your dreams fall through
(Hush now don’t you cry)
I swoon, upon my knees come crashing
Will you bury me?
Today, this small favor I am asking
Hold me, you may drop me tomorrow
For a change I?ll refrain from hiding all of me from you
(Here’s my lullaby)
Pray for rain, lose your name
And watch all your dreams fall through
(Hush now don’t you cry)
For a change I?ll refrain from hiding all of me from you
Pray for rain, lose your name
And watch all your dreams fall through
Here’s my lullaby
Hush now don’t you cry
Come down
Come down cold with us
With me
I flee to Decemberunderground
As you exhale I breathe in
And sink into the water underground
And I grow pale without you
