The Wolf of Allendale

I've lived many afterlives, I've waited too long
I mistook my air supply for wings, through all
I was a faithful son, a useless architect
I've been awake too long, and empty argument
I've burned through all sympathy, I've changed the start
Only in useless dreams are we pulled apart
I'm born in a full collapse, in the only town
I've been a tangled heart, a broken monument
Only to waste it all, a mealy mouthed reply
Only in useless dreams are we pulled apart
I'm in another time - in a full collapse
I burned every photograph that you survived in
Here, time runs backwards now, we are rectified
There's no way, you will see - time destroys everything
Every night the pieces fit, I break them up - begin again
I made a pact, if I should fall, I'll leave a trail for you to follow
Are we no better?
Every night, the darkness comes
To see me off to lower worlds
If I ever win the war, I'll fall into the ground below
I can get them all to see, all again, all again
I'm nothing more, but a parasite
A tune I've lost
I waged a war on losing things
A fool I am
Tidal waves, and pesticides, a ruined place
I've never been so anaesthetised, when you were there
I've learned to be an alibi, in time we've lost
