thought knew

how did we get here
into this ditch
we slid
and it became
such a game
of truth and truth
and I dare
to swear to whisper
it's done and you'll be the death
of me

how did we get here
we used to be so clear
it all rest.ed
arrested up top

we stayed steady for oh so long
and we came so close to the edge of the
cliff that we started to sway
came close to the edge
that we couldn't look away

sucked into it the echo
to fill in and bleed
we let it run

its course of coarse
man.ip.ulation

i think i know

that we can't go
that we can't go

back
back back

i wouldn't want it to be true
i wouldn't want it anyway
i thought i know you
but didn't think you could
just walk away

how did we get here
i'll tell you
we were traveling
side-by-side
until you decided
you'd ingested enough for the two of us
as if i hadn't carried
the two for the first half of our trip

we weighted
by the trough you brought forth
we waited
you exhaled as i let go
of my breath
kicked in

how did we get here
i thought i knew...
you....
