Stoned in the Chalk Zone

from Summer 2013 by Bad Donor

lyrics

why do the things we say convince us that the games we play are fine?
i'm breathing heavily but you'll never make me jump back in line
no i won't consider waiting on that line
it's something i will teach you in time

why is this not enough for us?
we left home on a broken course
the train came off the tracks and we turned back
the mystery that captures our humble hearts
it takes them right from us
stares us in the face

and now i'm sitting here alone, a tied up mind becomes my home
i'm searching for a relief that i can call my own
and it won't be long at all before it comes
but certain things have happened
happenings, they keep me on my feet
they keep my head raised high and far away from the concrete
and you'll gently mouth "i miss you" in your sleep

she let her hair down and looked straight up
sometimes even the skies we claim to love just ain't enough
so many memories could fill me up
i struggle with my breathing as i get off at your stop
so many memories that i've made up
sometimes even the skies we claim to love just ain't enough
so many melodies could lift you up
i struggle with my breathing as i get off at your stop
