Radical Face - Welcome Home

Welcome Home

Radical Face

Sleep don't visit

So I choke on sun

The days blur into one

And the backs of my eyes

Hum with things I've never done

Sheets are swaying

From an old clothesline

Like a row of captured ghosts

Over old dead grass

Was never much

But we made the most

Welcome home

Ships are launching from my chest

Some have names but most do not

If you find one,

Please let me know what piece I've lost

Heal the scars from off my back

I don't need them any more

You can thrown them out

Or keep them in your mason jars

I've come home

All my nightmares escaped from my head

Bar the door

Please don't let them in

You were never supposed to leave

Now my head is splitting at the seams

And I don't know if I can....

Here beneath my lungs,

I feel you thumbs press into my skin again
