Viaduct - Former Hero

I spent the last year in suspension

Harrowed by the thought

Of opening my blinds

Letting go of lesser times

Now it’s gone

You were better off…

Could you come and rest with me?

Even just for the moment?

And I don’t think there’s a point to this

To chasing momentary bliss

Feeling like I can’t exist

Fuck the world, I will persist, I’m alive

(I'm alive, I’m alive, I’m alive…)

You were better off…

You were better off…

Could you come and rst with me?

Could you come and rest with m?

Do you regret the cold?

That swallowed up your temple?

Swaying back and forth

Never quite on time

Never quite your tempo

But you keep to it anyway

Did you not learn to walk?

Before you learned to swim?

You’re drowning out there, kid

You’re never quite who we are

Maybe that’s okay?

We’re better off ourselves

We’re better off…

We’re better off…

We’re better off… (Ourselves)

We’re better off ourselves

If I walk to the plank, the plan—

You were better off dreaming of the viaduct

You were better off dreaming of the viaduct

You…

You were better off dreaming of the viaduct

You were better off dreaming of the viaduct

You were better off dreaming of the viaduct

You were better off dreaming of the viaduct
