Lucky Shoreline - Failure

Crawled out of the silk sheets

Watched the day seep in through slow panes

I feel strangely weakened

Long to be the song to help

Fixed on a different person

Staring blankly through the stain there

Shave off the hair she loved so

Need to breathe the rules that share

So I’m just too late

She fell

From a lucky shoreline

Something in the way

She yelled

But I couldn’t hear it

Leave on what I am wearing

Watch her cringe in open hatred

I leave my place of haven

Must escape the hell we made

The road breaks clean and careful

Tracking dunes across the highway

I laugh as I am careful

Spinning down a canyon road

So I’m just too late

She fell

From a lucky shoreline

Something in the way

She yelled

But I couldn’t hear it

Trembles every way

Cruel day, but I couldn’t save her

Brought her back okay

She’s dead

But nothing’s missing

See me on the cliff I stand on

Urgent sounds that break the silence

Her laugh was nothing special

I take her with me now

So I’m just too late

She fell

From a lucky shoreline

Something in the way

She yelled

But I couldn’t hear it
