While the Flies

They took you running
You thought they made you feel safe
I watched it all
I'll never be the same again
All this all will seem the same

They left you falling and no one remembers your name
Another one and the flies they record you die
All this all will seem the same

Dear Khalil
I tried to pull you away
I can't forget but these arms they tried in vain

I'll take you with me eyes are falling inside
I fall apart but it ever beckons

I'll take to throwing all the pennies I've stored
I'll throw them well and get a wish now once and for all
For pinching thumbs to help revive me
These pinching thumbs will lift you from the enemy
And when the dust settles and we raise once more

I'll take you with me eyes are falling inside
I fall apart but it never beckons

There's a shake in the spotlight
It's a three part haunting
That lets the drips in your eyes turn to walls
and the frost rise in the heat of that sad face of yours

It will spill my goodbyes
It will spill, it can't lie down
It's all about me
It will spill my goodbyes
It will spill, it won't lie down
The silent siren

Dear Khalil
I tried to pull you away
Another one and the flies they record you die
