lyrics

Laying my feelings to rest
Returning to me my own medicine
Displaced eternity, now nuclear serenity
Thinking meticulously
Come interest me
Cutting apart the detail
To find familiarity

Because I’ve been here before
I can recognize the compulsion
Don’t interpret my scolding thoughts
The insanity of repetition
Break me dogmatic
Break me of this unruly perfection
These habits argue in my head
Slapping my own hands

Determination hanging heavy clouds
Putting out misery, my first memory
Put me out of misery
Watering hope with grief
Share my gravity
The sky is falling apart
Share my gravity
The sky is falling apart
To believe I was broken from the start
Nuclear serenity

Understanding falls short of me
There are hands like worms in my head
So silent I’ve become
Hidden in plain sight
When to rise, when to fight
For now, quiet
Archaic convent
A romantic architect
In decorum fingers laced propriety
The possibility of love
I can’t dream of it
The thoughts let me go overkilled
The clouds rapt and reach for me
Attuned to a fate

Because I’ve been here before
I can recognize the compulsion
Don’t interpret my scolding thoughts
The insanity of repetition
Break me dogmatic
Break me of this unruly perfection
These habits argue in my head
Slapping my own hands

Determination hanging heavy clouds
Putting out misery, my first memory
Put me out of misery
Watering hope with grief
Share my gravity
The sky is falling apart
Share my gravity
The sky is falling apart
To believe I was broken from the start
Nuclear serenity

Honeyed every word with golden embers
Peace lives here in the tumult
Smoking cursive
In the air a seal of silence
Nuclear serenity
