Caravels - Dog Days lyrics

Here she can be still , rest her eyes The same way shes done a thousand times She can lose herself to her head And count the sheep, count to ten She knows how restless she can be About the creaking floors That chime all night relentlessly Reminding her the day is done The knots and loops we tie at night To free ourselves at morning light I never want to wait again Terminal, I'm at a loss I never want to wait again Not a second, not to pause Our best attempt to guard against Slowly creeping pa** of time Now a fleeting delusion of mine But I tried To slow it all to a glacial pace To numb it all, stay comatose To slow it all to a glacial pace But I tried, but I tried You're a fool if you honestly think You have say in what you believe You're set in stone You're skin and bones And you're all you'll ever be All you'll ever be As we wake up different people each day I still can't figure out what has changed You said “you were wrong to look for that in me” “you asked of me something that I could never be” And the bitterness, it pools and drowns out my thoughts When I'm aching for a second, just to pause When every spark of inspiration is second best You wrote to me “life is still beautiful nonetheless”
