Comets

I can't get away from this

I feel it all the time

See through all the blinds

Hear the calling night

I can't get away from this

I just can't let it die

Everyone's alive

I'm just getting by

I can't find my place in this

I feel like there's no time

I keep my pace and stride

I walk between the lines

I can't find my way in this

I'm just a little tired

I wish I didn't try

So hard to fill as high as you

But you could help to steady till

I can pick myself up from my knees

By standing still as the world tilts

I guess I was made before the comets cratered hills

Everything was straight but now the lakes spill

I can't hear you call my name

It's just not one I know

It used to be my home

Now haunted by a ghost

I can't hear the song the same

I used to love the notes

Like walking childhood roads

My friends are all too old to play

But you could help to steady till

I can pick myself up from my knees

By standing still as the world tilts

I guess I was made before the comets cratered hills

Everything was straight but now the lakes spill

To the river, to the ocean, to the clouds

To the hurricane that rages down

To the rubble, today I found

I can't get away from this, a subtlety so loud

I can't get away from this now

I can't get away from this

I feel it all the time

See through all the blinds

Hear the calling night

I can't get away from this

I just can't let it die

Everyone's alive

I'm just getting by
