Lyrics:
Where are you going?//
You're a long way from home//
Born and raised//
I watched them pave these roads//
I'll die here too//
Already marked my grave with bones//
Rip a hole in the map//
Rip a hole in space//
Rip a hole through flesh//
I could have laid down at the altar and stayed but I know sinners don't choose rest//
Told me to hold you close when I go so I hope you didn't hold your breath//
Baby it's all the same to me//
Crossing space is commonplace don't contemplate the distance//
Locations fall away and bleed into one//
I don't need where I'm from//
Command the hand of god to reach through the firmament and pluck me from Earth's surface in an instant//
Burden warped my vertebrae like steel in the sun//
I don't feel like you understand //
You don’t want me?//
I can’t say I blame you//
I could say I’m sorry//
Would that be less painful?//
I could take one last look as I leave like I need it//
Need it//
I still love you//
Well at least on paper//
Can’t be proved when uprooted and turned to vapour//
Just pretend the tears in my eyes from the wind’s cuz I’m grieving//
Grieving//
Feet planted at the depth of your ancestor’s caskets//
Addresses are redacted//
Every possession strapped onto my back until it fractures//
Shoulders bruised like atlas//
Corroded through the atlas//
I'm floating through the ether//
Few hundreds meters//
Few thousand miles//
Skipped in an instant//
I cut like cleaver//
If you get too close I push like piston//
Pulled like leaver//
Swear I didn’t want to leave you//
Leave you//
Baby it's all the same to me//
Crossing space is commonplace don't contemplate the distance//
Locations fall away and bleed into one//
I don't need where I'm from//
Command the hand of god to reach through the firmament and pluck me from Earth's surface in an instant//
Burden warped my vertebrae like steel in the sun//
I don't feel like you understand //
I don’t feel//
I don’t feel like you understand//
I don’t-//
I don’t feel like un-//
Listen to my joints creak like cellar doors//
I'm on a checkerboard//
It's all monochrome coordinates when I teleport//
Mourn the lost connection from the severed cord//
Found a hairline fracture in my collarbone//
Only lay my baggage down in borrowed homes//
Baby it’s all the same to me//
Baby it’s all the same to me//
All the same to me//
Baby it’s all the same to me//
Baby it’s all the same to me//
All the same to me//
