Get Me Down

Spaghetti straps, backpack, and skirt touching there just above her knees The shells, they snap, and crack, and fold beneath the pressure of her feet Oh, I identify, I know, I sigh just loud enough to hear Hoping that maybe something reaches her, to crawl into her ears A sign, a signal, fire, rain, or snow, just something, let me know If I should stay or I should go, my heart is beating in my throat She knows my prose too well, questions me now to the very end It never changes, going through it all again You know I don't know how To stay, to stick around I swim, I sink, I drown Your love, it gets me down The stars break out into a thousand little pieces floating on Into the great beyond, and rise again to greet us with the dawn The birds they sing, I dream of spring and all the better things in life A paradise behind my eyes, your voice cuts through it like a knife The frequencies they disagree, they clutter space between my ears I can't enjoy a single moment when you speak, when you are near It used to sing like angels, it fucking made my day But same is anything I know, that's gone away You know I don't know how To stay, to stick around I swim, I sink, I drown Your love, it gets me down ~Demo LP 2016 Tracklist: 01.
