Kept At Bay

by Scott of the Andes

/
1.
Scattered ghosts haunting in their screens Spit and shout they don't know what it means But now I don't recall For sure gone after all Scaled it back the vulnerability Forgive the tone a self-made parody No idea if it plays No idea if it stays The years have had their way with you Line is broke no way through Save me from the end that never comes Stood about in vagrant company Permanent innocuous misery For sure I don't recall Now gone after all The years have had their way with you Line is broken no way through Save me from the end that never comes Sunken in the days not passed Little hopes that never last Throw the baby out but keep the bath The years have not been kind to you Line is broken no way through Save me from the end that never comes They won't talk or hear of it The day goes now comes the fit All those moments covered in a fog God don't care to speak to you All that fear is coming through Squeezed until the last breath that you take

I convinced myself that everyone hates me I convinced myself that I can't even save me And it's coming true And it's coming true But I won't do a thing about it And it's coming true And it's coming true But I won't do a thing about it I convinced myself that everyone hates me I convinced myself that I can't even save me And it's coming true And it's coming true And I won't do a thing about it And it's coming true And it's coming true And I won't do a thing about it Outta sight Out of mind So outta sight Out of my mind I know there's more than what is actually shown We're in this together but we all die alone But I still sleep Yeah I still sleep Just thinking that nothing's gonna happen to me But I still sleep Yeah I still sleep Just thinking that nothing's gonna happen to me Outta sight Out of mind So outta sight Out of my mind I made all the bad things up so I no longer feel I made all the bad things up and now they're for real And they say they care And they say they care But they don't know a thing about it And they say they care And the say they care But they don't know a thing about it Outta sight Out of mind So outta sight Out of my mind

Indefinite Irrelevant The thought to choose the more you lose The void looks back at you Venerate Exacerbate Split but near That yawning fear gets wider for you Not unlike the thought that won't stick Not unlike the moment that will leave Coming through Coming through Again Coming through Coming through Again Young to old Light turns cold Burn to wait Just hesitate And it's all left you Ready but out A silent shout Buckles and sways Kept all the ways to get back from you Not unlike the moment that won't stick Not unlike the thought that won't leave They're coming through They're coming through Again They're coming through They're coming through Again You feel it all You feel it all Breathing out Breathing out You're breathing out Coming through Coming through Again Coming through Coming through Again They're coming through They're coming through Again They're coming through They're coming through Again

Walking in pairs They're unaware Of all the stupid things they don't say Sun it shines It's divine I don't know anything A solution to the problem that is not really there Can't seem to get it through Talking and aging time is fading Can't seem to make it true And dusk it provides a little light I'll be afraid when it's gone Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodbye
