lyrics

I don’t want to be the same man that you want me to be.
There’s a haunting breath behind me.
Whispering defeat and slight squeeze.

Sliding down the lie where you want me to be. L’appel du vide. I am incomplete.
Do you feel this hole? Do you tell me to think? This heart only putters. My calling repeats.

I don’t want to be the same man that you want me to be.
There’s a haunting breath behind me.
Whispering defeat and slight squeeze
Two red dots swell white. You want me to see.
Freckles in moonlight. They’re on your cheek.

Sliding down the lie where you want me to be. L’appel du vide. I am incomplete.
Do you feel this hole? Do you tell me to think? This heart only putters. My calling repeats.

My calling repeats
And I’m fighting compulsion to let the void talk
The part on my shoulder that’s screaming “burn that!”
I couldn’t hold a child or be given the truth. Roll me up in a rug. Leave only refuse.
My calling repeats. I’ll never void walk.
