Austin Hoke - Slumber Shadow (Transmission To Past Self For The Avoidance Of) lyrics

(Eyes wide closed am I feeling a ghost Either you're stepping close or they're changing the dose) (I've got the one quick shift with a crime on the lips, I've got the memories left to make) (Motion still going in for the k**, it's either love sick bombs or a change of the will) (We've got the white sand sink taking off in a blink, we've got the memories left to make) Memories old with the ends foretold, I am lost, am lost in stories Faded bold ink that kissed the cold I've been damned, been damned by stories A song to hum as I do fall asleep To wake me up, to wake inside a dream The slumber shadow on the wall does creep How long, how long, too long I've been asleep The light sorted it out in order The luck is now unto the sea The day of sullen eyes is over It wasn't, it wasn't me A penny for the thoughts I'm over The past and present don't agree A cello for a lost October It's over This future dream Gold I know's in the depths of souls, still I cry, I cry for stories Moment's bliss out of listlessness Angry words, I'm disturbed by stories A song to hum as I do fall asleep To wake me up, to wake inside a dream The slumber shadow on the wall does creep How long, how long, too long I've been asleep If you are hearing this the past is gone I'm only seventeen This message will resolve the crisis It's over, you're in a dream And right around the time you're twenty If you can find the coming scene Then you have won and fought for order It's over, this future dream
