lyrics

Father: "What?"
Jasper: "What happened to her?"
Father: "Not this again, are you joking? Get some help--"
Jasper: "Can’t you? You haven’t acknowledged me since she… she…"
Father: "Died? She’s dead. You’re having nightmares again."
Jasper: "They’re seeing her everywhere; they’re showing me--"
Father: "Whose they?"
Jasper: "Everyone!"
Father: "Call your uncle. Please, he can help you."
Jasper: "Are you sure?"
Father: "Just call him! I’m going back to sleep."

This splitting moment sends shivers down my spine
I’m aching all the time
Resonating impulse leaves me on the edge
(Remember what was said)
Remember what was said
The hand moves again, direction uncontrolled
Panic settles in tonight, as I wait
For dialtone

No response; the blindfold stays
Tell me how to relieve my loneliness
Her brother, a voice on the other end
"Forget you don’t know," he says
Just open the door
Let me in tonight

Weary tight knuckles
A man willing to help
Change my life in just one night
Breathless inhale
The door slowly opens
And a face is unveiled
And I know his eyes from mine
A place I can hide

Wake my eyes in sleepless night
She's passed on but seems to live outside my head
He hands me a glass in the evening's haze
Says, “If you can’t let go, then stay,
But your final breath can
Wait another night"

Melting fast in my chair in the room as I collapse
I’m told the things I want to hear until relapse
The ceiling spins, time has elapsed, calculate to navigate
Spaces burned in mind maps, losing touch of each synapse
Melting fast in my chair in the room, I collapse
I’m told the things I want to hear until I feel myself relapse
The ceiling spins, time has elapsed, I calculate and navigate
The spaces burned in my mind maps, I’m losing touch of each synapse
Melting fast in my chair in the room, I collapse
I’m told the things I want to hear until I feel myself relapse
The ceiling spins, time has elapsed, calculate to navigate
Spaces burned in my mind maps, I'm losing touch of each synapse
I'm melting fast in my chair in the room as I collapse
I’m told the things I want to hear until I relapse

All these secrets, uncage their light
With damage done, wish for hindsight
This testament, blocked by lock and key
Electric hallways, work to compute me
Compute me

Eyes closed shut, see a world renewed
Yet sound asleep steers away from the truth

Bleary eyes make out his wicked grin
Frays of the seat hook to my skin
Just wake me up
Set me free tonight
