Wallflower Video (MV)

Once alone I tilt my head back
Taking draughts of glances
And stares
To begin the math
As I divide the words
By the length of pauses
And collapse
Under the fraction

I evaporate a small bit
With every word I say
I'm shortening my sentences
Lest I drift off into space
Becoming more translucent
Every moment that I stay
Leaving these things early
To not fade entirely
I'll disassociate back home
At my own pace
You know I'm only dust gathered
In a human's shape

Songs and words are winged things
Easily startled away
A long line of others stands
Directly behind me
With a lot more to say
Jesus a calm wind might just
Blow me away
Clothes cool a year ago
Left standing in my place
Like an empty picture frame
Hung to cover up a stain

I evaporate a small bit
With every word I say
I'm shortening my sentences
Lest I drift off into space
Becoming more translucent
Every moment that I stay
Leaving these things early
To not fade entirely
I'll disassociate back home
At my own pace
You know I'm only dust gathered
In a human's shape
