[Verse 1]
In the quieter mornings, I talk to myself now
The world has all ended, at least I pretend it
And I was left over, an etch in the limestone
And I could sedate it, instead I replay it
A memory pacing, at times it is speaking
I talk to myself now, or was I just thinking

[Chorus]
Everything’s tethered to parts, I don’t have the heart
To let it wither away
Everything stays

[Verse 2]
And if I can manage, I can rebrand it
The pain it has caused me, so much I can’t stand it
Could be something bettеr, if I can remember
Thе love on the B-sides, that no one could sever
From every whisper, the glances and gazes
And it’s never over, it’s only in phases

[Chorus]
Everything’s tethered to parts, I don’t have the heart
To let it wither away
Everything stays
[Outro]
An eminent feeling of imminent peeling
Of something corrupting to something revealing
A quiet salvation, a soft resignation
It all happens slowly, but I can be patient
