“This song was originally and roughly formed a few years ago, about the impending weight of the future; it almost made it onto Black Mile, but hadn’t fully formed yet.

I know how to speak
And I know where I’m going
I wanted to seek
But I got distracted
It’s a mirage
One that leaves me embarrassed
'Cause no one knows me like you
You know there’s nothing left for you
So I continually move
Try to pass it through for ya
'Cause I bore ya
The pest about pain
Is timeless and honest
So let go of your shame
It’s a dead, dampened blanket
It’s a facade
Go back and look at your training
There’s nobody else like you
I think I finally explained it
So I continue to move
Between the bank and the blanket
Don’t fake it
I, I'm really gonna try this time
I'm gonna give you my heart in spite of my soul
I, I'm really gonna try this time
I'm gonna give you my heart in spite of my soul
I want your name
Burnt in my ceiling
Floats like a flame
An unpredictable wonder
You gave it all hope
That all of this is a circle
There’s nobody else like you
So many that came before ya
This is the moment I choose
Between the hope and the harness
So be honest
I, I'm really gonna try this time
Gonna give you my heart in spite of my soul
I, I'm really gonna try this time
Gonna give you my heart in spite of my soul
