[00:44.621]All that time that you killed
[00:49.501]Pulling smoke to your lungs
[00:54.657]In a parking lot covered in green glass
[00:58.923]And shimmering
[01:04.289]The light on your face starts to darken and dissipate
[01:10.243]The ghost was inside your mouth
[01:15.215]Placing bets with your teeth
[01:20.391]Forcing your voice out
[01:22.367]Pushing your tongue up from underneath
[01:29.935]And out past the fields we were racing the sun
[01:34.675]
[01:35.400]You slipped away past the fog and the firelight
[01:40.523]I saw the footsteps cut out of the ash
[01:45.536]We traded names just to see if the colors would change
[01:52.670]And they did
[01:56.045]
[02:06.682]I got sick of the pull
[02:11.771]You just sputtered and sank
[02:16.886]You were nothing
[02:18.542]A curtain of sawdust
[02:21.500]A weather vane
[02:26.520]And don’t try to skip past the part where you realize
[02:31.699]
[02:32.104]You slipped away past the fog and the firelight
[02:37.114]I saw the footsteps cut out of the ash
[02:42.180]We traded names just to see if the colors would change
[02:49.298]And they did
[02:51.397]
[02:52.573]But I lied my way out of this one
[02:57.601]And you lied your way to a ditch
[03:02.634]And I fought myself just to stay up
[03:06.703]Out of your street-walking, tongue-talking sleep
[03:11.756]How it consumed you and eventually me
[03:18.481]
[03:37.801]You slipped away
[03:42.034]Jumped down into the sea
[03:47.047]Now they're coming for me
[03:53.127]We have been sitting out here
[03:56.039]Telling fortunes for much too long
[04:01.255]
