"Garamond" lyrics
"Garamond"
You procrastinated sleep
So you sought out to make it routine
I thought being this numb was me toughening up
You stitched the back of your corduroys
I'm withdrawn from the ways that you are
Stuck in a dream state of the art
I went with my gut and I threw it all up
So dig your thumbs into my pressure points
You're always leaving the light on
I'm leaving before it gets bad
And if it's what you want
Why do you look like that?
I will bend over backwards
To keep what you've got here intact
Who will die in my lifetime?
You'd rather pass in your sleep
I'm losing my way with words
Sentences scattered and slurred
Hope the last breath I breathe is a sigh of relief
With your past on a pedestal
Should I fall off of the face of the earth?
Or rinse with salt, just so it doesn't hurt?
I've said it once, said it twice
I've spoiled everything nice
Shutting down summer solstice
To make a shorter schedule
You're always leaving the light on
I'm leaving before it gets bad
And if it's what you want
Why do you look like that?
I will bend over backwards
To keep what you've got here intact, intact
If I treat every thought like a stab in the back
I will write out my last words
I'll save every wishbone you snapped
You snapped
You're always leaving the light on
I'm leaving before it gets bad
And if it's what you want
Why do you look like that?
I will bend over backwards
To keep what you've got here intact

Microwave - "Bored Of Being Sad" Call the bastard up and buy him lunch
Let's talk about the future
How I've grown to feel so little love
How you act like you don't understand
A short word with the lonesome balladeer
A long weekend...
The Story So Far - "Out Of It" Leaning on a bad knee
Don't really wanna be with anyone
Can you hear in my key?
How can you not see it's not always fun
Wait and score, speed back
Lock the door, just pour, I'm getting numb
Not...
Free Throw - "Spacer's Choice" New photo in an old frame
Broken down vehicle with fresh paint
Fake smile, same pain
Washed up, everything is circling the drain
Like the minor characters that populate a game
Repeating dialogue...
Knuckle Puck - "Groundhog Day" We're just getting started
And the end is nowhere in sight
The goal posts are farther
And we're stuck here in the meantime
So this is the difference
Between boundaries and distance
I'm taking them...
