Lyrics
I’ll extend my hand, don’t mean I remember
I extend a gesture, but it doesn't imply that I recall
Saline soaked shoulder bones
Tears have permeated the bones of my shoulder
Old school passive friendship rules
Adhering to traditional, laid-back rules of friendship
Happened 2 years ago this December
An event occurred two years ago in December
You might’ve meant something to me
You might have had significance to me
But I’ll never know
However, I will never be certain
There’s something you should know
There's something important you need to be aware of
I forgot you, our home
I have forgotten about you and our shared residence
And everything in between
And everything in the midst of our connection
And even if I wanted to prove
Even if I wished to demonstrate
Tragedy could fix you
Tragedy could be the remedy for you
Extend your hand, please say you remember
Extend your hand, please confirm if you remember
Do you know what it’s like
Do you comprehend the feeling?
To wake paralyzed
Waking up unable to move
And you’ve forgotten your whole life
Forgetting the entirety of your life
Broken look in their eyes
An expression of brokenness in their eyes
Future’s been compromised
The future has been compromised
It’s not your fault your brain tried to
It's not your fault your brain attempted to end your life
Make you die
Reduced to a statistic, a marvel
A statistic, a marvel
I possess a mind filled with confusion
I’ve got a skull of marbles
A metaphorical depiction of complexity
None of which are playing a game
None of the complexities are engaged in a game
Scans, somewhat artful
Medical scans, somewhat artistic
Diagnosis, an earful
A diagnosis, a substantial amount of information
There’s tv static ice in my spine
A metaphorical description of discomfort or distress
But I’m fine though
Despite challenges, I claim to be fine
Sunshine is gone from my life, but I swear
The brightness of life has disappeared, but I assert
I’m fine though
I am still fine
I swear that I’m
I assert that I am
I swear that I’m
-Do you know what it’s like
Do you comprehend the feeling?
To wake up paralyzed?
Waking up unable to move
I wonder if I’ll ever get back home
I ponder if I will ever return home
Night howler with the brittle bones
A night creature with fragile bones
Dizzy spells and concrete feet
Experiencing dizziness and feeling weighed down
Exclusive nightgowns, blended feed
Exclusive nightwear, mixed sustenance
But we’re still trying, even though we’re sunset’s feast
Despite challenges, we continue striving, even though we are destined to decline
