Feral


Everyone turns feral in time
I'm fraying at the edges
Nothing's ever simple in our minds
Apart from consequences

Desperate to remember your face
But now I feel so anxious
Struggling with the fact we can't relate
Our arguments seem endless

We're broken down people in these miserable times
Trying hard to remain as our empathy dies

Everyone I know goes away
Obsessed with second guessing
Running to the places we can't stay
As if we'll find redemption

Carving out our thoughts to make sense
Outside the wind is blowing
No one else around would let it in
Forgotten lines keep folding

We're broken down people in these miserable times
Trying hard to remain as our empathy dies

But no one questions why
No one questions why

Black, white, shades of grey
Moonlight falls to chase the day

Black, white, shades of grey
Righteous thoughts can turn profane

Black, white, shades of grey
Memories form and then decay

Black, white, shades of grey
Silent fears can't stay contained

We're broken down people in these miserable times
Trying hard to remain as our empathy dies
