sorrow

The sunrise like the shiver of the knowing
my father speaking patient,
my history a token of the burden I done wove in
thought the summer would heal
I conceal my thoughts sittin at the dock of the bay
Remember when I couldn't say nothing
I'm outside enough, my outcry a bluff,
I'm in the middle of the ocean
my woman think she know she got a sliver of a notion
a shimmer of a moment scratched the things we set in motion
Tried moving on to better things,
that only kept me wishin
Now, wishing is just something that I don't do
Who told me "brodie keep your head up, move at your own pace"
Now I'm floating, head down,
hoping I see a known face, I'm bruised,
hunger make you eat your words
depression make you see the worst
and so I leave the curb
I'm crossing the street now, head down
Don't need to see anybody's eyes
I said I've tried living all these lies
I'm talking to my sister Megan
I'm only diving when it's deep or when it hits 11
they tell me history a reverend, and I know that
Still, delving in the sea
could never control that, I don't know who I'm supposed to be
The line I tow that
It's time to give back all that I have borrowed
Only question left is what to do with all the sorrow
It's time to give back all that I have borrowed
Only question left is what to do with all the sorrow
Tried and couldn't, tried until I...

Tried until I couldn't try, my time in need
Cried until I couldn't cry, it's time to bleed
Tried until I couldn't try, my time in need
Cried until I couldn't cry, it's time to bleed
