we drink our ourselves to sleep
company we keep
intoxicates us
we're only waiting to
lay backwards in bed
pray for a beast
to shed some revelry
and the
world of words unfolds
and everyone's such work
and every night's a hollow life

we lie half the time
we lie half
the time

the ghost of hubris
relocates in my place
apartment south of grace
get the pastor cause
he walks around the window
falling from a lonely star
I'm just feeling spent
what with all the
rent
exorcism

we lie half the time
we lie half
the time

let a spirit come down
come down
lay your head and come down
come down
let my spirit come down
come down

So where's the boy in me
that hates the man I am
that cares that if no one called
where's that harmony
the letters and the time
that click on 1,2,3

we lie half the time
we lie half
the time
