Deep Demise

Down and out. I fell into a roundabout
Siphoned underneath the ground, where I'll hold court forever
It's a deep demise. Separating from the sky
Nothing lovely left behind. It all ends up under water

I fell into the thick. I'm a window moving through a brick
There are pieces that I know were mine, that can't be put together
Thats the name of games. Keep the damage up to date
The paperwork can be a pain, but what else are your options?

No one wants to live in a ghost town
But sometimes
That's just where you find yourself
Take back my permit. I won't break ground
Because nothing is here to build on anyhow

I'm a passerby. No reason to be too uptight
It's just a pretty flash of light exposed onto the moment
Or a slow decent. They're steady raising up the rent
Clocking out and clocking in without a real disruption

No one wants to live in a ghost town
But sometimes
That's just where you find yourself
Take back my permit. I won't break ground
Because nothing is here to build on anyhow
A dream that had to end. You fling it from a cliff
Watch it as it goes down
It goes down, it goes down, it goes down

Just pay the dues. Watch a wealthy life accrue
Retire to a quiet place and contemplate the journey
Then into the earth. Pressing daisies through the dirt
An echo of a former form, with no blood to offer
