Resignations (demo)

lyrics

And it seems, these two parts of me
Are always warring, always warning me
Of the importance of life
Or the lack thereof
In perpetual strife
I can’t rise above
below is where
I feel most at home
But lately it seems,
These two parts of me
are equaling, leveling
are steadily steading, are letting go

Of suicide as an option
Well that’s like losing a close friend
It has always been there
through the worst
It has bettered me
And from it I have grown
For me, letting go
Of my selfless pride
Slipping into river
The river at night
Drowning in there
And in here, letting go
Of the importance of life
Settling on the lack thereof
It may had weathered me
and yet I have grown
Sour and cold

But it seems, as seasons change
So can we
My blood on the porch steps
Will wash away in the spring
And it seems, as seasons change
So do we
scars on my thin arms
Fade in the light summer’s sun brings

As seasons change, so can we
The reasons change and so do we
Yet I can’t shake the feeling
Of healing being wrong
I haven’t known any good
In me for far too long
It is foreign, it’s feigned
It is false, it’s fake
whatever it takes
I will see the death of me
The end of I

Because it’s worse when I lay
In the grass
Watch the sun and clouds
Fade away and taste the fear
The oncoming dusk brings.

Oh, I’m fucked now
I see it circling my brain
As the hawk searches for prey
Steady in the rain it’s looks like
Suicide is the only option

that’s like losing a close friend
It has always been there
through the worst
It has battered me
And from it I have grown
For me, letting go
Of my selfish pride
slipping into
Depression filled nights
Drowning in there
Oh while here I’m letting go
Of the importance of life
Settling on the lack thereof
It has weathered me
And yet I have grown
Sour and cold


But it seems, as seasons change
So can we
My blood on the porch steps
Will wash away in the spring
And it seems, as seasons change
So do we
scars on my thin arms
Fade in the light summer’s sun brings

Am I unchanging? Undying?
Am I Stagnant, the same
Does death outweigh life
Or do they now weigh the same?
As seasons change, so can we
The reasons change, but do we?
Do we ever?
