Ghost Voxtrot

I will be the one to let this roof cave in on me
Buried in this house, this wooden graveyard by the sea
We push away our families to understand our needs
The love and all the hate I used to hold in front of me

Restless nights, all dizzy spells, all sand between my sheets
Showing signs of thirst I tried out boardwalk-blistered feet
And now I know I never knew about you, only me
We carried this inside like some disease we couldn't beat

But we could wait and try to live and get by
To make our family in a second-floor apartment
Standing on the threshold, body out and flesh cold
Go ahead and celebrate the things you lost

Try to breathe to flex our wings
To cry out work out what the underrated part meant
Moments are a lifetime
Nothin' in a straight line
This could take a little while to shake things off

Down by the water's edge, under the dying tree
I let my body slip, something outside of me
But when I came around, some kind of murky face
I don't ever want to be alone like this
