The Embrace

from Meat Parade by The Projectionist

lyrics

It's a shallow resolve
That creates only nothing
In the place
Where you once stood

The embrace of that cord
Isn't as warm as these arms
I can promise you
That it won't save you from harm

How can you still stand with such pride
As though you can take it all in your stride

Don't try to fall from the ceiling
Your neck won't hold you alone

I promised that I'd do all I could for you
But when it all went wrong you never understood
Now I am only one man, and I can live for myself
But to you life is a commodity for which the trade off is death
And you relied on us to make it worth while
While our worth lost it's value as you ensured we would fail
And the only thanks we ever got
Was a glass half drunk and empty pill pot

The embrace of that cord
Isn't as warm as these arms
I can promise you
That it won't save you from harm
