lyrics

This is the science of recurrence
The lingering sound of imperfection
Echoing wearily from a distance
As we lose sight of each other

I’ve been here before
Coming up this dried-out stream
Exhausted by a deficient desire
Receiving the transmission returning to collapse back upon itself

We’re stranded
On this idle desert
Lurking by an extinguished fire
We’re stranded
On this idle desert
Watching the smoke dissolving into nothing

We’re lurking by an extinguished fire
Watching the smoke dissolving into nothing
As we’re breathing what’s left
Of this poisonous reaction

I thought this time was gonna be different
That we would make it past the point
Where we left off the last time we did

Striking the sails
This boat is sinking irresistibly into the depth
Of an entangling ocean
Sinking and sinking

We’re sinking
Into the depth
Of an entangling ocean
We’re sinking
Towards the bottom
Of our existence

I thought this time was gonna be different
That we would make it past the point
Where we left off the last time we did

Striking the sails
This boat is sinking
Sinking sinking sinking

We’re sinking
Towards the bottom of our existence

Hold on tight
I will not let you go
I’m with you until the end
