folly after death - elway lyrics

Loading...

i recoil at every detail
in recounting all the sighs i’ve exhaled
i piece together the tale
in the tidelines of the ships that set sail
with notes tucked into pockets
under wipers
between sheets or bike spokes
and every couplet i wrote
the ephemera of past lives
plastic trinkets
artifacts that i stole
to feed the candle i hold

i held my brеath like folly chasing after death
until thе only thing that’s left to do was run
i bit my tongue until my mouth was full of blood
til everything and everyone i knew was gone
now denver in winter dreams in a dull metallic blue
it blacks out the bravery i am forever overdue
but if even just one word of this barstool prophecy rings true
i’d like to watch the lights go out with you

i’d believe you if you said i was already dead
there was no hope of rescue coming through
i can purge my heavy head of the specters in my bed
but the only one i dream about is you
