Rescue Rescue - Criteria

a memory lapse

a heart that collapsed

a fragmented time

that’s turned into math

i can’t stand the sight

i turn my eyes

a pressure here

a pressure here

when i say «i don’t know»

it means «i don’t want you to know»

my plans will change

i will pack then be ready to go

and drive away from this tar-heeled state

and go back to omaha

a place i know i will be safe

(your eyes are blind)

what i’m listening to

it’s not logical

that’s why i’m leaving you

because that’s possible

now i can’t pretend

to be someone i am not

the bed that you made for me

used to put me right to sleep

but now i lie awake

slowly devising this speech

your plans have failed

you are shaking, you’re chilled and you’re weak

(your eyes are blind)
