Ever Lyrics by James Ivy
Half a hole, a quarter filled
Getting tired from sitting still
Heavy bones and obstacles are in my way
Think of you an awful lot
Nodding off in parking lots
Heavily dosed, comatose I slip away
But I thought I’d see you every day
I won’t ever know
What it is I want
You don’t ever get
Who you are and who you’re not
Animal flesh, carpet floors
Forgetting who you were before
The sleeping tone, corporal drone and modern rot
Only take what you can hold
And only keep what can be sold
Beside yourself, cry for help and wait your turn
You’re all of the things that I thought I’d learn
I won’t ever know
What it is I want
You don’t ever get
Who you are and who you’re not
I won’t ever know
What it is I want
You don’t ever get
To know who you are
Who you are and who you’re not
Who you are
