thank you for your service, I'm sorry I'm terrible at listening and painfully shy.
lyrics
telemetry
if the writing's on the wall then this one's on my throat,
this proof comes with a sting:
the dead flask of Jameson split between me and a forward-serving Marine that bleeds for me
but I'm no good at listening,
I'm a wolf asleep in a lion's den pocket-dialing dead friends again,
who's numbers still live in my phone but mean much more to me -
these are the lies we lead,
but my constellation-life burns brighter than I think,
burns brighter than I think -
and every night there's still Orion
and 'Take This To Your Grave' taking us to Maine in the morning
and I'm lost in the first frost of this year.
I know I am the consequence of passing time and circumstance, Bud,
a thousand days south of the Gold Coast can change people that way,
I know we got Virginia in our future,
and someone reading this over my shoulder,
it still beats to hell sharing Mike's lucky on our fifteen at work.
but I'm no good at listening,
I'm a wolf asleep in a lion's den pocket-dialing dead friends again,
who's numbers still live in my phone but mean much more to me -
these are the lies we lead,
but my constellation-life burns brighter than I think,
burns brighter than I think -
and I'm no good at listening, I'm a wolf asleep that dreams
I'm no good at listening, I'm a wolf asleep that dreams
I'm no good at listening, I'm a wolf asleep - these are lies we lead.
but my constellation-life burns brighter than I think,
burns brighter than I think.
and I'm no good at listening, I'm a wolf asleep:
these are the lies we lead.
but my constellation-life burns brighter than I think,
burns brighter than I think.
