Standing Water

Corner stores, cigarettes, parasites, and black flies
My life's been consumed in a landslide
My buddies believe in Jesus I'm on the wrong side
But that's alright
I'm telling dad
All the things I'd like to change about mom
I haven't been deep with her in so long
Maybe I'm the problem is that so wrong
Still so young

Don't know how this started
Don't know where we're going
There's algae growing on our skin
We've lost the fire
Still going under
Nothing good about all this standing water
Standing water

There's not much movement
In this part of town that I call mine
My emotion's thinning out I'm covered in thick ice
You're in Alaska calling from the landline
Living different lives

Don't know how this started
Don't know where we're going
There's algae growing on our skin
We've lost the fire
Still going under
Nothing good about all this standing water
Standing water

Skulls and roses
I dream of being buried at thirty four
And I know you'd say I should turn to the good word
I tried drinking when you left that shit don't work
I'm still hurt

Don't know how this started
Don't know where we're going
There's algae growing on our skin
We've lost the fire
Still going under
Nothing good about all this standing water
Standing water

Standing water

Standing water
