lyrics

I kicked open the gate
But no one’s willing to follow
I’m stuck standing in place
As if I’m needing for nothing

You wanted to know how it feels
Well, you found out
The hoarder of knives clicking heels
And just walking away

I kicked open the gate
Into an infinite hollow
I’m stuck staring at space
As if I’m waiting on something

You wanted to know how it feels
Well, you found out
That delicate need to appeal
Now starting to fray
Razing the chord of concern
Fucking detritus
Pitching out into the storm
All cant and no steel

Maybe I’ve got the whethers
Maybe I just don’t care
Tell me there’s something better
Than getting caught in a midnight glare

If only I had forever
If only I did not care
Pretending there’s nothing better
Is getting caught in a midnight glare

I kicked open the gate
But no one’s willing to follow
