existential crisis

lyrics

That Perfect Storm



Can’t fall asleep I’m pacing up the floor

And I’ve been too meek in the face of my own scorn

I can’t relax until shoot into the deep and melt away from this stage in my susceptible reform



Can’t I redeem all the nights I lay to waste?

Not as it seems, if I could try for anything

It’d be to walk into the wake of all my shambled disarray for just one taste of that forgotten perfect storm



Stagnant hope, oh who am I to judge

I barley cope, when I feel lost beyond the edge

I think you know of all the times I’ve fallen far beneath the helm to wander aimlessly away to my desire



Oo hark herald in my arms

I’ve taken all the goods and left you dry

Oo be it Jupiter in sight

I’m forever pinning for that perfect storm



Ain’t it a laugh? that it goddamn doesn’t mean much

Just a note, a thought that I can’t touch

Life was handed to me straight on a ragged silver platter and the only bit I used were all cracks



Can’t it be simple? after all I guess it is

I’ve been the place card, for the one you really missed

Went through the motions till the sun broke through the moon, until the rays shot through the scope, I was no prophet anyway



Oo hark herald in my arms

I’ve taken all the goods and left you dry

Oo be it Jupiter in sight

I’m forever pinning for that perfect storm





Grab a glass and drink your little heart out

I’ve blurred the lines and left them far behind

It might be sticky what a mess I’ve made, and honestly I lied, I am no angel strictly fallen by your side
