Hearsay

Come close and tiptoe

Whisper simplistic

Like chalk on sidewalk

Over and over

This is all just hearsay

Placid attachments

War torn embracing

Over and over

See teeth just gnashing

Blueblood on blackboard

Swallow a mouthful

Over and over

With the world falling down at a pace that breaks us

Rolling like the credits that end again

We really needed to believe in this

Derivative irrelevant smoke and mirrors

No more maybe I'm numb, baby

No more hanging pressure in the air so calm

Your honor will they hear me over all that laughter

Mummy and daddy I see the pretty gavels

They will make all the choices for me

I simply move to the pace of angels

I don't swagger, I just dangle

Why is this so difficult?

Because I can't see

Why is this so difficult?

Because I can't breathe

This is just transition, nothing more

Watching the world dumb down to an all-time low

And I was stuck in a steady surveillance

of an outpost of ingrates

locked down and uptight

destined to makeshift

directions to sunset

many more moments

were more mal intentioned

so maybe they're winning

with wisdom we wanted

so be it sophia

your glamour is gone

So we surrendered, in silence still hoping

Hoping, still hoping they're that then and nothing more

Over and over

Over and over

Over and over

Over!
