how do you sleep?

Standing on the shore, facing east I can't feel you Standing on the shore, facing east Your impermanence You're taking water Listing lazily out of view I remember when we were friends I remember calling you friend Standing on the shore my ear aimed east I can't hear you I can't hear you anymore I can't hear you I can't hear you anymore I still remember Laughing and fighting I still remember Standing on the shore, watching for you You're painted into a corner Whatever fits in your pockets; you'll get your due Just like before With all the others You warned me about the cocaine Then dove straight in Yeah, you warned me about the cocaine Then dove straight in In hiding, where there's more for you (There's more for you) Standing on the shore, getting off You left me here amid the vape clowns I must admit I missed the mountain But not so much you One step forward One step forward One step forward And six steps back And six steps back And six steps back And six steps back And six steps back And six steps back And six steps back And six steps back Standing on the floor, facing you I can't see you, your impermanence This place is empty Empty of you And if I see you, it's like nothing went wrong Yeah, if we meet again tomorrow, just like nothing went wrong But they Erasing our chances just by asking, "how do you sleep?" One step forward One step forward One step forward And six steps back And six steps back And six steps back And six steps back And six steps back And six steps back And six steps back And six steps back
