Sleepy Flame 03:54
Early in the morning The sun struggles to rise On this clear, quiet, cold morning It's nothing sacred Not yet awakened by your light And if you show me you're there Then I won't have to stare In longing through fog at some grace shining from The torch you lit in my darkened layer Now I'm trying to leave But there's frost on my windshield and I can't see a thing Where is my sun? To melt the frosty grey so things can be done And you plead and you beg, you said "Don't disturb me in bed" But the night is so long and my dreams are so cold So I need your warmth to defrost my head Now I'm trying to leave

It's to the smell of stale beer that you've awoken Spilling onto mattress, making the stains even Your bed's the canvas, your shit's the paint It's the work you study everyday Hypnotized by the mess You feel your head fill up with stress That coffee in your cup It's warm and black And you've got nothing good in your head So you might as well focus on that But now you've focused much too long And all that warmth in your cup, it's gone What'll you do with this cold cup? It's enough to make a mellow fellow erupt You're spent up, mellow fellow erupt You'll find something good to think about soon But for now you might as well destroy your room

I never thought it'd be this hard to write a song But confusion breeds confusion and I haven't said otherwise in so long So your impact is a bit hard to explain Without falling into the same stupid fucking cliches What if I say, "I'm within reach to an end to searching I've found my beach it's within reach" I see the beauty in feeling the ghost rays swarm around my head The sand seems soft and warm I'd like it burying up my limbs But as I stop think, I start to sink I'm unaware As my arms are all rubber Comprehension stutters But I'll never stop swimming, I swear I swear I'll never stop swimming toward you Please don't leave me my sweet beach
