Nostalgic Dread Lyrics

calling back, time has passed
i've looked back, into my thoughts
with empty eyes staring at clocks
i had the energy to be
but intrusive thoughts blister me

collections of memories
bleeding through my white t-shirt
i wish i could fix this
but i walk in reverse, i'm no longer me
the ocean of light
but i'm a puppet, the man without sight

the waves, they call unto me
shadowfall has been here and taken me beneath.
you know, i followed the steps
everything you laid out for me

but why do i fall down
begging to be free
i'm oppressed
this should not sink
but here i lay red eyed, empty and weak

i listen to the wind
cool and collected, the sounds we make on repeat
ready to be alone, release me from my throne
a ton of weight would float above
float away with me

i'm trying to remember what it was we said
was it something i promised you?
a day to come to bed?

i'll lie to myself
just a feeling i'll forget

it hurts me to even look your way
the only one that faked this was your name
you even tried to tell me everything was okay
i'm disgusted at the thought of remaining awake

for your sake please just forget me

calling back, time has passed
i've looked back, into my thoughts
with empty eyes staring at clocks
i had the energy to be
but intrusive thoughts blister me
