No Lucky Years - Lateshift (Live from Silver Lake)

I've been working late shifts
I've been getting almost no sleep
I've been taking long walks every night even though it's been freezing
It happens everyday here
The sidewalk falls away
And I float in the cosmos with nothing to ground me

Maybe it's the caffeine
Or from smoking too much weed
but I spend all day bundled up in my own anxiety
I've been thinking someday
I'll have something to say
But not tonight, and not to you-
I'm just too afraid of what you might think

I understand that it happens all the time
Everything and everyone can be left behind
This is the last time that I'll hear your voice;
The last time that I'll try
I've been living in metaphors to make up for lost time

You're a paper airplane soaring
Across an endless sea
And I'm the vacant space you feel underneath your wings
When you're sinking in the ocean
Cinderblocks for shoes
I'll be the overwhelming weight bearing down on you
