CASCADING SPARKS

V5

[Verse 1] Cascading sparks Casting arcs through the black Leaving marks on my palms Like a map with no track Cadence of cars Fading far down the lane Empty parks after dark Rusted swings in the rain Tracing scars On the bark of that tree Where the carvings once read Something close to belief [Pre-Chorus] And I'm wearing it thin Every edge, every rim Of the shape you left here Growing dim, growing dim [Chorus] Fasting so dark From every part of me I keep chasing the spark Where the shadow used to be I am wasting through Every replay, every view Wearing out the name Till it won't come through Won't come through Won't come through [Verse 2] Plastic bags catch the wire Pixel sky burning low I rehearse to the choir Of a room that won't know Late light, slow sight Unread signs on the wall Every glow, every bright Just a quiet withdrawal Static talks in my jaw Something raw, something gone I spit ghosts but they crawl Back by dark, back by dawn [Pre-Chorus] And the edges erode Every crack in the code Of the thing I once held Now a weight, now a load [Chorus] Fasting so dark From every part of me I keep chasing the spark Where the shadow used to be I am wasting through Every replay, every view Wearing out the name Till it won't come through Won't come through Won't come through [Bridge] Every flare folds in half Burned photograph If I'm the dark you outgrew Why am I still lit by you? (lit by you) (lit by you) All this hollow in my chest All this echo, all this rest I keep reaching for the proof But the proof keeps reaching through [Final Chorus] Cascading sparks They brand me, they find me Little scars in the truth Fading glare right behind me Every flare leads me back To the track I can't lose Fasting so dark I'm shaking, I'm breaking Hollow arc beating through You keep saying I'm mistaken But I know I am wasting through (wasting through) (wasting through) I am wasting through [Outro] Cascading sparks... Casting marks... In the dark... In the dark...
