Flood

The sun shined through my room today
Speckled on my face
It’s good to feel the warmth on me
And I don’t have a thing to do
Sleep the week away
Cold gives way to longer days
And I could meet you in the dark
I’ve got lots of time
To resurrect some light
To be see through
You’ll pack your things while I’m away
And be gone without a trace
It was good to have this time with you

It doesn’t mean a thing unless you want it to
Feel nothing forever
A stream of images bleed endlessly to me
The flood

And I don’t care to soak the bruise
Spent half the afternoon
Puzzle piecing shadowed walls
Until they’re swallowed up again
As the night sets in
Another day black and blue

And I like hiding in a dream
I like messing up my world
I like playing make believe
I like dying just for fun

It doesn’t mean a thing unless you want it to
Feel nothing forever
And I sink deep so I can’t feel the weight always
