The Hotelier - In Framing lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Well, you fell for the first option presented of new rebirth

You couldn't see it but you thought you'd believe it

Since your soul's cramping up, have been swollen and sore,

Your new shoes back then just don't fit anymore

You retraced the same shape, cut up and re-sewn,

When you felt abandoned, when you felt alone

(Verse)

And on new years, you resolved to make your chaos external

(Duress of sickening kinds. A half year blacked out of my mind)

My string traced back to a place. My girl alleviated

(Chorus)

Erase failed attempts at obstructing machines

Got drained when the crutch became vampire scene

They are mourning, then chew it, then swallow it whole

I choked on your temper when you felt alone, you felt alone

(Interlude)

And the sirens cry loudly

I am reflexive, I cry loudly

You put my picture in framing, hung forever

Left me strangling, called me 'baby'

(Chorus)

And with your nature reversed and our home as our cage

You caved and you asked us 'Is this coming of age?'

As you climbed out the window, your face cold as stone

You lifted the towel, your wrist showed the bone

I bled in the ER

As soon as I stood. I tried to stay steady

(And protect you the best)

You pretended to sleep the entire ride home

But I heard you crying when you felt alone
