I see thousands of spirits all around you
Are you that unhappy with your soup?
Did you assume that we would serve elixirs
That'd carry you back into your loop?
Maybe it's time to opt for silence
Try to quiet the words then as they come
I'm sure they're only waiting for an ending
Before they dissolve into the sun
Or maybe make it on the run
She was real, she was here
She was really here like I feared
When she's near I can hear
Cracks in the silences before they disappear
Maybe say she only needs to stay another year
I wish I could help you with your timing
But there's only so much I can do
Pretty soon the days will run together
When a rolling fog replaces dew
All these ghosts still all around you
Are making a point beyond the grave
You could just now take or leave them
But it's in your nature to save
And in my nature to cave
She was real, she was here
She was really here like I feared
When she's near I can hear
Cracks in the silences before they disappear
Make it clear what you fear
Is the beer and all its endless endings
When she is near it is clear
Changing gears only slows her slightly
She's watching you nightly
Doesn't know that she's hooked on your fear
