Blood Red Blood Voxtrot

Lonely boy, where do we go?
I'm stuck believing in the other side
Stuck on my own
Run fast, retreating for a place to hide

Safety in things I'm dumb for thinking
'Cuz a piece of plastic
Is nothing more than a piece of plastic

How did we get so far from the general beat
Of hearts that cling, held fast together
In the dying day, oh, you are swimming inside the magic hour
And when you wet your skin
You could soak up all you need to know
You could soak up all you need to know, oh oh

Picture me, how will you picture me when I am dead?
All fast and free, building up fantasy blocks in my head
My legacy, do these things dissipate in the years unread?
I felt a pain just like a knife, and then the time, it left me, oh

I'm just trying to do my best
I'm not afraid of life, I'm afraid of death
Build my love in the things I say
You gotta lift your face to the breaking day
