Your fingers clinch around my aching bones
You began to whisper through the telephone
Falsely idolize, that’s what we prioritize
Fantasize my own lie, set ablaze a planned life
Bury my ghost and throw me in the fire
Leave me to burn with all of your old desires
Is it wrong to hold on to all of mine?
Is it wrong to cast stones with no axe to grind?

I can hear you laughing out loud
And I’m real quiet
Did you hear that deafening sad sound?
I heard it in the silence
I heard it in the silence
I swore I did
It’s time to set sail again
Your cold waters were never my friend
Beg my pardon, I forgot to knock
While you’re kept close, I’m put under lock

The Goodbye

Quiet like the morning drive
Where you held hands so tight
I fell apart and became the slight
The one that’ll kill me in due time
It’s your plan
Time disguised as sand
A thousand reasons to exist
But none in this crisis
This is goodbye
Clip my wings
And close your eyes
I still feel you crawl around inside
The only thing haunting my mind
I’m never sad, I swear it’s fine
Go be who you really are in time
It’s my plan
I never follow it, man
I cut corners every chance I get
And I can’t let it be done
This is goodbye
Clip my wings and close your eyes
The bees began to hum and hide
Bringing honey to their hives
Stinging my fingers
Pulling out mine
This is goodbye
Here’s another reason for you to smile
This is goodbye
This is the reason I am failing all the time

I wanna be your poltergeist
Shake your bed and white your eyes
I wanna be your loss of vision
Fading stars during car collisions
Sin to sin, I’m a broken man
I’ve compromised others and the one I discovered
Can’t seem
To see that
Ink to pen, you’re my favorite ghost
You’d haunt the shallow waters I would drown in most
And yet you’d kick the chair
Right underneath me
I wanna be your exorcism
Holy water to your words of latin
I wanna be your trepidation
A loaded gun during home invasions
Sin to sin, I’m a broken man
I’ve compromised others and the I discovered
Can’t seem
To see that
Ink to pen, you’re my favorite ghost
You’d haunt the shallow waters I would drown in most
And yet you’d kick the chair
Right underneath me

Covered in blankets
You’d trace them with your love
There’s no erasing this time alone
It’s vindicated yet patient
For the blood
No longer elated, let’s face it
Time’s a ghost
What a way to die alone
What a waste of life we are

I never bought in
I just sold out
I never took God
And killed him in his cloud
I was down by the river
Rattling bones
The water was ice cold
My feet is brushing stone
Oh, oh
Oh
Your father bought it
You wore it
You stole it
You didn’t earn it
Yet you swore
You’d never
Condemn
The stupid and naive
Here you are
Swallowed by sheep
Oh, oh
Oh
(Oh, love
Love
Oh no)

Good job hunting for table scraps
Building faulty traps
Bleed this one out
Let it go and frown about
Now it’s six feet away
From a flooded grave
Decaying bones aside
Never learned to thrive
Martyr, martyr
Martyr, martyr
Good job hanging from loose rope
Peering into unknowns
Swinging abound
Show ‘em what you care about
Now it’s six feet away
From a shallow fate
Bury yourself alive
So your dark can learn to fight
Martyr, martyr
Martyr, martyr
Martyr, martyr
Martyr, martyr

The Coward Robert Ford Jacksonville, Florida
pretentious nihilistic slowcore bootgaze post-emo doomer music
The Coward Robert Ford recommends:
My first true love in the pure dark ambient world. Sets an evil, brooding mood that actually haunted me at night.

I Would Prefer Not To
by Dating
The best post-punk project you've NEVER heard. Unreal wall-to-wall sound that is reminiscent of greats in the genre like Have A Nice Life but vocals heavily akin to emo acts of the early '90s.

With Love From A Padded Room
by Crippling Alcoholism
A hate-fueled sweeping, haunting, thrashing nightmare of an album that will most certainly be the gold-standard of its genres for many years to come - you just don't know it yet.
