Surrounded by empty parts of a forgotten past Chasing myself around to end up in the same place as last I spiral all night on a bed beaten by time and mistakes Just to sleep in segments of new horror in a different time of space Helplessly in love with the possibility that you may impossibly have what I'm looking for Hounded by remedy crooks with cold coffee and platitudes Abandoned by the church of the broken, to fall back into poisonous loving arms Now I'm talking to the walls and crying with the windows Spinning with the ceiling and alone in our bedroom Remembering the promises made in a 101 proof haze Living on borrowed time remembering yesterdays

Hello Walls
Surrounded by empty parts of a forgotten past Chasing myself around to end up in the same place as last I spiral all night on a bed beaten by time and mistakes Just to sleep in segments of new horror in a different time of space Helplessly in love with the possibility that you may impossibly have what I'm looking for Hounded by remedy crooks with cold coffee and platitudes Abandoned by the church of the broken, to fall back into poisonous loving arms Now I'm talking to the walls and crying with the windows Spinning with the ceiling and alone in our bedroom Remembering the promises made in a 101 proof haze Living on borrowed time remembering yesterdays
The story of an addict spiraling down alone in the bedroom that was once shared -inspired by the Willie Nelson song
