Flicker

The cadence in this silence ruins me
An amethyst glow always seems to keep
Just enough bright around
To help you place your thoughts, In all the right spots
The songs you used to hum all night
And the words that always read just right
Can make it so hard to watch it, flicker and descend
The arc of this dream crushes every vein
A shallow depression always seems to save
Just enough certainty to taper off your faults, with all the right calls
The songs you used to hum all night
And the words that always read just right
Can make it so hard to watch it, flicker and descend
The songs you used to hum all night
