lucky shoreline

crawled out of the silk sheets

watched the day seep in through slow panes

i feel strangely weakened

long to be the song to help

fixed on a different person

staring blankly through the stain there

shave off the hair she loved so

need to breathe the rules that share

so i'm just too late

she fell

from a lucky shoreline

something in the way

she yelled

but i couldn't hear it

leave on what i am wearing

watch her cringe in open hatred

i leave my place of haven

must escape the hell we made

the road breaks clean and careful

tracking dunes across the highway

i laugh as i am careful

spinning down a canyon road

so i'm just too late

she fell

from a lucky shoreline

something in the way

she yelled

but i couldn't hear it

trembles every way

cruel day

but i couldn't save her

brought her back okay

she's dead

but nothing's missing

see me on the cliff i stand on

urgent sounds that break the silence

her laugh was nothing special

i take her with me now

so i'm just too late

she fell

from a lucky shoreline

something in the way

she yelled

but i couldn't hear it
