The Gloom In The Corner
(i) Soul of Angels
Words were never spoken aloud
Just teasing glances in our directions
Who knew that love would break me
Breaking the vice between reality, it seems
Nothing is innocent anymore
A few bottles down and I'm already on the floor
Screaming your name
For the man in black to bring you home
It's been 1 week, one long week
And your presence is starting to fade away
Every day I stare down the barrel of a gun
I beg for the ghosts to stay away
Be erased from my memories
Because the thought of you gone
Brings me too much pain
It's funny how much happened in a second
Watch your step or you might lose it
I knew that one day they'd all fall
But I didn't know that you'd impact me at all
I just want to feel you in my arms again
I'm all alone in this mind and I'm not feeling it
When I brought you down, untied the rope
I brought down everything and everyone
It's not that hard to see I lack direction
And a sense of purpose
When I held her in my arms she felt so weightless
Rachel: Carry me home
Jay: I feel so weightless
Everything feels so transparent
Have I lost all sense of purpose?
Rachel: Carry me home
Find my gravity
I don't want to let go of everything
If only you could fucking hear me
Honestly?
I can't breathe
The feelings mutual
The pain is substantial
Pull me close
Don't let go
Feel my grief
Feel my sorrow
Weightless, but you're not rising up
The noose pulled you down and took you from me
Jay: God I take back all the mistakes I made
Take my life for hers as a trade
Begging for you, please come back to me
Feel the pull of gravity
Let the man in black take you home
