Sighs & Fictions

by Daniel Ryan Espy

/

lyrics

So I’ve said it
And lay the decision to my hands
Froze in a middle that makes no sense

No point in talking down from here
Spare but a tremor, keep pretense
There is no potential from this point, hence

Fall in a river that laps hands
Smile when it finally releases
Wave for his sake or his benediction

Turn when he calls for your service
Run when yells fast and nervous
No one believes it’s all sighs and fictions

Tell him what he needs to hear
Son, save those tears for someone who’ll listen

Damn You for what you have done
You’ve spared Your son and now taken my soul from me

Fall in a river that laps hands
Smile when it finally releases
Wave for his sake or his benediction

Turn when he calls for your service
Run when he yells fast and nervous
No one believes it’s all sighs and fictions

Wipe your face and bat your eyes
As no body helps him when nobody helps him
Oh, how you’ve failed though hardly tried
‘Cause nobody helps him when nobody helps him
