River Bigby - Glaze

Things change when people differ
Or so we do at least
We try on new faces
Like clothes for the weeks
Worn weak on tears and torn
From doubts we already know
But we never accept
And so we throw words out of our mouths
At each other
For sore feelings that grow
On stems from knowing
Of which way all this shit really goes
The what about what's in the head of the other
And how they pictured us alone
I've gotten so tired of looking at myself in the mirror
And how that man who stares back isn't in my image
I slip regression under my heavy tongue
But tough pills were always hard for me to swallow

So now I'll wallow
In my thoughts of you without me
And how you'll feel free
When I'm in silence
How you'll feel peace
And piece together those broken shards of dreams
That just shatter in glass box realities

And I meditate those days away with smug weather
I'm trying to feel better
Work out that dumb shit I conjured up
That I brought out and vomited up
On the ground on groggy nights
Of one too many beers
Or a fist fight
It's with my own misery
I lick my wounds you pour your salt into
And this cuts deep
But this is my world I've tied you up to
I'm sure I'll never understand
I'll never really get it
But whats to get if I'm always falling off
Followed where my thoughts are fucking headed
They just go deeper to darkness
And there they are
And things are never the way they all started
I lost the control on my mind before we parted
And you can't ever grasp the shit you ask of me sometimes
But if you force me into my own skull
I swear I'll never find the words to speak again
Cause its this sick little dribble
That unwinds like film reels
It glazes over my time
It drips through my hands
And I can hang off it
Like a black spoon to the addict
And feel sick that my habit
Is never kicked of you
And yeah I'm sad most of the time to feel this madness
I'm helpless and I'm strung out
I'm just an alcoholic drunk
On painful pensive thoughts
And the moon is twisted up
Like a lemon wedge
On the edge of a glass of hollow glances and pauses
Have I myself only imagined
In a room filled with people I know
When I go to talk
But somehow I choke
On the words held deep in my throat
I go to talk
But somehow I choke
On the words held inside my throat

Coz time flys
Only when we say goodbye
And we hold our doubt
Deep down as if were do or die
And I let lie
To all the piss poor pieces of my mind
That look for ways to press rewind
Rewind rewind rewind rewind

And they say time flys
Well if it does it's a magpie
We're here now gone in a swoop
We're here now gone in a swoop
And they say time flys
Well if it does its a magpie
We're here now gone in a swoop
We're here now gone in a swoop

So what would you do
If time flew
What would you do
If time flew
It's coming for you
