Flicker

lyrics

You’re a victim,
Though a future seer
Who can look up,
Sing morals up and down.

But you cannot breathe in the nighttime,
You cannot breathe in the day
Your eyes scream, “make me alive”.

Yearn to tease out the sadness
So it won’t flicker in the madness of your
Darkest every day.

You believe in it,
but it won’t get you better at all
It slides like ash to ignite your veins.

You have me
You have me
Trust me on this one
Trust me on this, love.

Yearn.
Yearn to tease out.
[You wreck it every time I got it off
You pull me in and that’s a sign that’s toxic love.]

So it won’t, won’t flicker in the madness
So [Is it enough to want to make this right?]
It won’t [when you emasculate the operation signal]
Won’t flicker in the madness [the stop light would only start to beep when I’m around]
So [but you still confuse the optimizing vitals]
it won’t [I need, I can lead but you keep the truth from me]
Won’t flicker in the madness
Of your darkest every, every, every, every, every, every day.
