lyrics

broken context
finds a right to stray
running through me
like a river through land
a head case to live in my gut
and unsteady hands
hold my words too much

why do I try to tie the air into knots
I waste my time trying to tie the air into knots

I'll be all that I can be
I'll be all that I can be
hold hands, hold heads, hold tight
hang friends hang heads, hang tight

you can find out trying to hold to salt
silence over, let's find a way to fault
because I won't be here for too long
I won't waste my time for too long
