Sedatephobic

lyrics

when was the last time
you spoke to me
when was the last time
i felt the need to listen
and were you blinded
by desperation
sedatephobic panic sets in
but still you never listened

maybe it's standing on a porch step all alone when evening light has faded
from a distant glimmer to a dull glow maybe it's in the air a cigarette an empty home passing conversation voices over telephones

something about the way i close my eyes
feels easier
like something about
the way your voice demanded open ears

days go by it seems
i've lost the need to say the things
that distance has replaced
with idle numbness
silent emptiness

maybe it's waiting for a train going far from home with countless bodies walking in straight lines their limbs framing glowing exit signs or maybe it's knowing i can't find you here knowing you're comfortable with the ones you that you love near i tell myself i'm grateful for what you did to me
but it means nothing i mean nothing i know you'd have trouble understanding

and i don't know what it is
but something about the way that
distance has replaced this
need for conversation
this ache
to end the silence
puts me at ease
and it helps me
but i can't sleep

when the days end feels
so far come morning light
these words feel ephemeral
they fall from my lips
it's quiet as night
that swallows your mind
leaves you hungry for
a chance to close your eyes
