Black Bay - Canines

Black bay where’d you go

I can’t find any light from your boats

And it only makes me feel more alone

Grey fog don’t you tire

Of the dark isolation of night

I know that the pressure gives you life

I know that the truth comes with the quiet

But I’m just so afraid of mine

So I blame the ones that I love

When I am no one to act as a judge

I know the bottle’s not best

But I’m just so starved for some kind of rest

From these lungs

And my tied tongue

What makes a man cave

To the simple escape from his days

Is it only a triumph over fear

Of what happens when waking cease to be

Or do we secretly love these tears
