Set me down for the evening
Enjoy the calm that precedes the storm
Heard you say you were leaving
You seem fine whatcha need me for

You're smiling even now as it hurts to
Your silence says way more than your words do
Your timing came to me like a curfew
I've been trying but I still haven't learned you

I thought I'd find you sooner but we're so spaced out
That mind is nothing short of a maze now
Well that kind of mystery has no place now
You've been flying since you haven't been weighed down

By the time you wake to read this it will probably be past dawn
By that time I'll lay in pieces as I wait for no response

Don't come too close
You'll see my ghost
You'll keep my hopes up way too high
Just leave me broke and bleeding
Vultures feeding
On me where I lie

Said your heart wasn't beating
I don't believe that show me proof
I know the tide's been receding
Would it have stayed if we told it to

I've noticed now that we haven't said much
My motives left me mute should've kept touch
I know the honeymoon phase has left us
My focus now is fixed on a dead sun

This hole was sealed but now it's starting to leak through
I know these streets but now they suddenly seem new
I don't recall this being what we agreed to
Guess someone found the road that I couldn't keep to

By the time you wake to read this it will probably be past dawn
By that time I'll lay here speechless while I struggle to stay calm

Don't come too close
You'll see my ghost
You'll keep my hopes up way too high
Just leave me broke and bleeding
Vultures feeding
On me when I die
