You're Spitting In My Hand

from It's Only The Apocalypse, But I Like It by Atlantean Sparrows

lyrics

As the thread of the past pains to come undone. And the web where I rest turns me inside again. Stony hands mark the line that I reach one day, But your face pales and fades on the other side, right. I hang low, low, low Hanging low, reaching out for your timid hands. Fairytales, candy rocks, sheltered by the old sea. No control, no comfort in a future tense. Not a word, not a dash that would reconcile us. I would show you the life we’ve always had, but I can’t recall. We are the children that never came back. We are the nice lies that everyone likes. We are the distance ever so large. We are the same. And the lights, are always on... I gotta see you again…
