Breakfast Tomorrow

Breakfast Tomorrow

Broken and alone
This bittersweet hold
He mumbles and moans
Her conscience was sold
Turned up to a scream
This all feels surreal
I died in a dream
There’s too much to feel
So shuffle along
These hearts turn to stone
We sing a broken song
To hear the unknown

Calamity begets imaginary ghosts
Yesterdays were never so sad
Hunger knows the ways of the coast
Reminding me it’s never so bad
Trippin to steps never taken
I need a vacation from days of the flood
Easy to see me as the forsaken
The ego in me is thicker than blood
Crescendo, descend in me
I’m waking up to see the unseen
Forgetting who I used to be
Dissolving stiches in my seams

So nothing more to really say
My heartbeat says today’s the day
I’m reaching higher, anyways
Cause friends are there to see the way
