The Witness (The Phone Ain't The Only Thing Dead In That Old House)
Running from the beach, blood on her hands, screaming “There’s been another shark attack”. Her words like blades, such a deception, she is the one we should fear. I’m aiming for a summer funeral, all the girls can dress up beautiful. Like a shark from the sea. Baby girl I have nothing left, I’m drinkin’ myself to death. She will consume me. Scream my secrets to the shoreline, these same old words. They say wounds will heal in time, I still feel her teeth inside of mine. Searching the sand for diamonds, a hopeless act for a man without faith. Deep cuts on wounded hands, Ive lost all track of time. Days spent dreaming feel more like cold nights drowning, the weight of these haunting days keep me down, I’m so scared of drowning, I think that this is it. We are lost at sea, she is hunting me, this is it. I swear the wind knows my name, yet she lays silent when I ask for answers. I am the captain of a sinking ship, drown, the way we’re all going down. Scream my secrets to the shoreline, these same old words. An ocean full of ghosts.....
