Punchline

I'm scared of the silence
Cause that's where I find him
So unexpected
Lurking in the shadows
Of my mind

Your beauty in its violence
It moves and it finds me
When I'm not waiting
You keep me guessing

If this was a joke to you now
You know it's way past the punchline
And I laughed too late
Only got it after everyone else
That I was your sometimes
You were my lifeline
Now I watch you wash away
From the shores of my mind

What do I wanna say if I
See your face and I
Get lost in the waves
Of all the past embraces
The music and the nighttime
Messages in blue light
But I only saw the picture
Once I stepped outside the frame
When it was gone
Nothing was ever the same

If this was a joke to you now
You know it's way past the punchline
And I laughed too late
Only got it after everyone else
That I was your sometimes
You were my lifeline
Now I watch you wash away
From the shores of my mind

I fill my time
White noise uneven rhyme
Paved roads and stop signs
Streetlights flashing your name in my mind
In the break of the music
I find your hands
Forever in my
Memory until it's not

If this was a joke to you now
You know it's way past the punchline
And I laughed too late
Only got it after everyone else
That I was your sometimes
You were my lifeline
Now I watch you wash away
From the shores of my mind
