Widower - Empty Your Lungs
I’M DROWNING.
I CAN FEEL MY LUNGS AS THEY FLOOD.
I CAN’T FIND THE WORDS, CAN’T FIND THE BREATH TO MAKE THEM HEARD.
THE WAVES OVERHEAD, THEY LET ME KNOW.
THEY LET ME KNOW I’M SINKING. I’M FALLING DOWN BELOW.
MY WORDS MUFFLED BY THIS OCEAN FLOW.
THEY LET ME KNOW I’M SINKING.
I’M FALLING DOWN BELOW.
LIKE THE WORDS STICK TO MY TONGUE.
LIKE THE WATER FILLS UP MY LUNGS.
THEY LET ME KNOW.
LIKE MY LEGS TRAPPED IN CEMENT GUIDE ME DOWN IN THIS DESCENT.
THEY LET ME KNOW.
CINDER BLOCKS STRAPPED TO MY FEET.
SINK DEEPER AND DEEPER IN TO THE SEA. I DIDN’T ASK FOR THIS.
I USED TO HAVE A GOOD IDEA OF WHERE I WANTED TO BE, AND THIS ISN’T IT.
THIS ISN’T IT.
IT PULLS ME DOWN INTO ITS DEPTHS.
I’M STRUGGLING FOR ONE LAST BREATH.
I THOUGHT THIS WAS LIKE THE AIR, WITHOUT IT I’D FUCKING DIE.
I THOUGHT THIS WAS LIKE THE AIR, WITHOUT IT I’D FUCKING WAKE UP.
WAKE UP.
IT WAS ALL A DREAM.
I would give so much to see this band again.
Just one of those bands where literally every song is relate-able to you in some way.
They had a short run, but fuck..
