lyrics

We planned your seven-day-long excursion
Counted down days till peace and dormancy
But in your descent on down that stairwell,
I found me longing for your arrival

“Nolo contendere”, swears “not guilty”
You took the sentence, without the penance
You don’t exist when not in my vision
It’s all for the best, forbid all protests

We planned your seven-day-long excursion
Counted down days till peace and dormancy
But in your descent on down that stairwell,
I found me longing for your arrival

By day you dream on endlessly; the nights: all spent reprimanding
When you go, we’ll take it back
Wretched trek down interstate, I’ll attempt to commiserate
We part ways, and find reprieve

Contemplating way back when, in backseat of your car, he grins
The world: still so new and pure
Vacancy inside the den, we're found empty handed again
He’s gone, but not gone for good
