Vigil

I know the way he makes you hide

Even when the dose is fight or flight

And the obits wait for a perfect name

Clean out the whims he left behind

And if you want, I can bury him out

By the Salton Sea in an empty grave

The past has a way of comin' clean

If I didn't know any better

I could have sworn you said

"There will come a day for his reckoning"

It's the want of the weight when it crushed

All the centrifugal ways our lives fall in and out of place

One day you're gonna see

That everybody who claimed that you and love have left

Because one by one, they would disappear

Claimin' all your words were symptoms of deceit

"Don't let your tongue slit your throat"

That's what they always said

This is one last chance that you've gotta take

It's the want of the weight when it crushed

All the centrifugal ways our lives fall in and out of place

No-oh, it's the want and the weight when it crushed

All the centrifugal ways our lives fall in and out of place

Underneath your doubt laid a serpent's egg

Hissing his way out

You were told (You were told)

Severed tongues (Severed tongues)

Can't fall onto their swords because

You're the only voice that calls

It's the want and the weight when it crushed

All the centrifugal ways our lives fall in and out of place

Oh-oh, it's the want and the weight when it crushed

All the centrifugal ways our lives fall in and out of place

When all is over, I'll be with you

Say you will, say you will, say you will

I'll be with you, I'll be with you

Say you will, say you will
