Capstan - Bury Your Bones lyrics
[Capstan - Bury Your Bones lyrics]
I hope my absence haunts you like a ghost
Eating away at you from time to time
I know I'm absent from your life and
Mind but you still haunt mine
There's a different kind of
Emptiness you left
Me with after all of this
And I can't wrap my head around the
Fact that you're not coming back
There's a chemical imbalance that you
Left inside my brain
You're the reason why the alcohol is
Still rotting in my veins
I'll be ok this is something
I can get through
But I don't know if I can
Say the same about you
I know a world of stability is all that you
Could ever see and when
Everything falls apart
Dear God I know it'll fall apart
I hope you buckle at your
Knees and think of me
I'll leave you with this emptiness
As your parting gift
These heavy words I know you can't lift
(Between the two of you there'll
Be a common rift)
And that's me. The problem you can't fix
The chemicals have balanced as I'm
Writing off your name
I hope the thought of us and broken
Trust stays frozen in his brain
'Ll be ok this is something
I can get through
But I don't know if I can
Say the same about you
Truth be told we are not the same
A future sold that was built on blame
I pray you can't bear the guilt and shame
I'll stay a thorn in your
Side that's worn with pain
Day in day out it won't get better
Even your friends say forever fair-weather
Stay stuck. You're a stormy sky with an
Idle mind you deserve each other
And I've been picking you apart in my head
Trying to see between you and me
If there was anything worth keeping
I'm empty handed once again
Constant consent. You lied to him
About the time we spent
Relapse. Repent. Your judgement lapse
Came and went
You said that life was built on compromise
A statement laced with fraying ties on
Borrowed time you'll never find
So in the end you took what was
Yours and stole what was mine
Eating away at you from time to time
I know I'm absent from your life and
Mind but you still haunt mine
There's a different kind of
Emptiness you left
Me with after all of this
And I can't wrap my head around the
Fact that you're not coming back
There's a chemical imbalance that you
Left inside my brain
You're the reason why the alcohol is
Still rotting in my veins
I'll be ok this is something
I can get through
But I don't know if I can
Say the same about you
I know a world of stability is all that you
Could ever see and when
Everything falls apart
Dear God I know it'll fall apart
I hope you buckle at your
Knees and think of me
I'll leave you with this emptiness
As your parting gift
These heavy words I know you can't lift
(Between the two of you there'll
Be a common rift)
And that's me. The problem you can't fix
The chemicals have balanced as I'm
Writing off your name
I hope the thought of us and broken
Trust stays frozen in his brain
'Ll be ok this is something
