Piece no. 1
Crippled from all your sticks and stones
That you've juggled and thrown
Systematic issues, you're stuck on pretend
Permenant shellshock, looking through a broken lens

(I won't doubt anymore
I can't drown anymore
Crooked cold case
Closing caskets carefully
Baby when I'm set down, I'll still toss and turn)

You wound all the springs inside of me
Ticking with every step of my feet
Contradict all the contracts split on contact
Comprehend one single word and action I enact

Always the one waving the leash
Just out of reach
Plan d set in motion last year
It's defeat

(I won't doubt anymore
I can't drown anymore
Crooked cold case
Closing caskets carefully
Baby when I'm set down, I'll still toss and turn)

I wish I could say I was proud
Till these clouds find their way out
I'll never find my way down
Well never share anything then or now

I'm sorry for when I wasn't around
But never for the moments, I never did doubt
Always waited for you to come around
In between lines praying to be safe and sound

(I won't doubt anymore
I can't drown anymore
Crooked cold case
Closing caskets carefully
Baby set me down, I'll try not to toss and turn)
