lyrics

The search for the right words was always a struggle. Maybe I never knew what I was trying to say...?

I tried meditating, but the silence scares me. Since then, I've made great friends with the floor these past few weeks.
I'm sinking too fast now. No way to pull myself out.

Although these silhouettes have kept me company, I need to work this out on my own time.

If this is the last you hear from me: I'm not gone, I've only become transparent. Swimming in self-doubt. A walking second guess. Still, it's time to move on because a mess of mediocrity doesn't make any damn sense. When I find this house--the one I once loved, the one we once shared--you'll never be welcomed. Go find your way home without me.

Lost Ships Sinking With The Sunset
by Gillian Carter

one of the most hard-working bands to come from a ghost city in Florida. Brutally/beautifully honest, self-loathing lyrics, hard-hitting, anxiety-driven drums, fuzz-filled, LOUD guitars. Perfection. Echo Base
