"Stories"

Verse one

And I, will miss a step sometimes,
all these things defined.
Overwhelming volumes with all your
hollow stories within.
Your thoughts and crimes,
a perfect, pocket-sized edition.

Chorus one

Offering, everything.
Sucking up the air from every breath I drew.
Enjoy your stay, this arm's length away.
But you won't reach, will you?

Verse two

Reserve the right, to navigate my lines.
Try face to face next time.
You'll celebrate how deep, how thick,
you think your world is.
I'll skin you bare,
there's nothing underneath the surface.

Chorus two

Offering, everything.
Sucking up the air from every breath I drew.
Enjoy your stay, this arm's length away.
But you won't reach, will you?

Bridge

She said, "You've been ahead of your time."
I said, "Well, you're a waste of mine."
She said, "You've been ahead of your time."
I said, "You're a waste of mine."

Chorus three

Offering, everything.
Sucking up the air from every breath I drew.
Enjoy your stay, this arm's length away.
But you won't reach, will you?
