Coaxed A Storm

Feeling my way

Through liminal space

Though it's not the time or place

Anywhere I sleep

Doesn't feel quite right

Cast in this new kind of light

I made a deal, I broke it

I took a spark and choked it

I ripped the door right off the frame

I coaxed a storm from placid

A lot of good it did

And now I'm pinned by my own name

Once more out the door

You know that it's happened before

Once more, say goodbye

You say you know why

Say a little prayer

For something real

Till the skin begins to heal

Pulling back the film that's settled

In the crease my eye

Even if I start to cry

I made a deal, I broke it

I took a spark and choked it

I ripped the door right off the frame

I coaxed a storm from placid

A lot of good it did

And now I'm pinned by my own name

Once more out the door

You know that it's happened before

Once more, say goodbye

You say you know why
