we cannot sleep tonight

given life's breath everyday's a privilege

nipping at our heels attempting to lead us off these cliffs

heartache navigate

we're taking the long way home

chalkline's traced but i haven't hit the ground just yet

looking up, they formed a circle/it starts to pour

this ledge is slippery when wet

i've got my best shoes on

tied so tight

reflecting light

they're waiting

they're planning

black umbrella day i wake to you

blind sided

sidestepping

my eye lids have been sewed shut

i can see between these threads

success, trial without a jury

i stutter indefense

focus on these veins

like highways, they bind and they twist

this witness bench has been empty

cells have clashed like head on collision course

chalkline's traced but i haven't hit the ground just yet

looking up, they formed a circle

it starts to pour this ledge is slippery when i got my best look

on

smooth and suave

they push to shove
