Drag me back
I don't fight
I lay awake, gaze; daydream
Eyes are still but skin screams

Till I run
Back to the moon
Take the line, feeding my harpoon
To a bloom of thirst; I'm on the run

I don't know why I waste the energy
Cycle back to the time before
Or before before not a fable or folklore
But it's vaguely escaping my memory

Hold me down at your leisure
I'm distant, different, start the procedure
Drink the nectar, little believer
Warped creature, hide your demeanor

You kill my ghosts
You kill my ghouls
You would slay the creatures that would prey
You are the reason that I stay

You kill my ghosts
You kill my ghouls
You would slay the creatures that would prey
You are the reason that I stay

And I ask myself the reasons that I stay
Baby you are
Baby, Baby you are

And I ask myself the reasons that I stay
Baby you are
Baby, Baby you are

I can't crawl out
Don't want to stay awake
Too worn to cross a check
Lay in the midst of my wreck

Two hands strain out
A voice calls out
I lay awake, gaze; daydream
Eyes are still but skin screams

Pull my cable down a channel to channel
Where my blood should flow
Where my air should go
I'd pull the seam but there's no telling where it goes
To shadows or meadows, I suppose -

Along the way let's tune this passenger
Cause there's contrast in the my sights contrast
I'm the suspect to my own cast
No middle ground, fabricate my craft
You don't understand my work is abstract

Good luck to tune, I hear the static
It's problematic, I'm dramatic and erratic
So I need a hand to guide; pull me I'm nomadic
Luckily I gotta hoolie' who can take my sporadic-

Brain that travels on a self destructive path
To save me from my self imposed aftermath
But I don't wanna be a bother, but I can't stop her
And I falter, I have to stop, stare and watch her

You kill my ghosts
You kill my ghouls
You would slay the creatures that would prey
You are the reason that I stay

You kill my ghosts
You kill my ghouls
You would slay the creatures that would prey
You are the reason that I stay

And I ask myself the reasons that I stay
Baby you are
Baby, Baby you are

And I ask myself the reasons that I stay
Baby you are
Baby, Baby you are

And I ask myself the reasons that I stay
Baby you are
Baby, Baby you are

And I ask myself the reasons that I stay
Baby you are
Baby, Baby you are
