Fortitude

The same thing always makes you think you're empty
The places that we come from always make us feel alone
The clock up on my dresser makes me think about my father
He has time time, but doesn't keep it well
Now I think it's in our blood.
I don't believe in anything, just a place to lay my head.
I don't believe in anything, just that next stop to rest my weary legs.
Patience is a virtue to live by
But these cloudy days have me questioning
Is it fortitude or are we waiting for nothing?
I've got to keep moving
I've got to keep moving
I don't believe in anything, just a place to lay my head.
I don't believe in anything, just that next stop to rest my weary legs.
Head first all the down
I lost my footing on this wet ground
And lately it's been too safe to say
That all I wanted was a safe place to lay
Head first all the down
I lost my footing on this wet ground
And lately it's been too safe to say
That all I wanted was a safe place to lay
That all I wanted was a safe place to lay
Nothing is listening
I believe in me
But I can only write Exhaustion for so long before I lose my belief
Head first all the down
I lost my footing on this wet ground
And lately it's been too safe to say
That all I wanted was a safe place to lay

Patience and Forgiveness

Patience and forgiveness have betrayed me
Made me question what I hated and what it means to be a man
But I'll never forget
No ill never forget
Square and measure
Square and measure
Keep it level
Hold it fast
I spent years denying likeness to my blood
Accepting traitors in my home while my father lost a son
A whim, a whiting thought of reality
A moment heading southward, level ever, holding fast
A whim, a whiting thought of reality
A moment heading southward, level ever, holding fast
Square and measure
Square and measure
Keep it level
Hold it fast
I followed my trail of fuck-ups back home
I tried to dig in but I only sank into my bones
Square and measure
Square and measure
Keep it level
Hold it fast

Dear Exhaustion,
It's just me, writing you again. I've grown tired of your antics, but you're an old, old friend.
There was a time when all I wanted in this world was you.
Now all I want is balance, and someone to talk to.
Repeat
Dear Exhaustion,
It's just me, writing you again. I've grown tired of your antics, but you're an old, old friend.
