Over the River

I cast my scars in the lead role

Plaster my heart over all the holes

That keep me wondering if I'm whole

I let it go, for all I know

I live alone, in crowded rooms

I sit and expose my darkest views

And still I am no closer to the truth

Still I am disposed of when I'm of no more use

I pour my strength into the world around me

I'm sure that the length of your tide would drown me

I saved my last breath for the moment you found me

Just to express to you how late you've been

I blacken the edges of the wound

I dress for December in June

Cause I know how cold it is, with you

And I know who the wind is, without you

I lessen my weights, breathe in my fate

I dress in the shakes, of your heroin face

And I stress 'til I break

I cast my heart in the lead role

And gave my spare change to Charon

I shuttered away dreams, and paid my toll

And traveled this road, alive and alone.
