written in coping of the passing of one of my best friends. the life and death of your dearest pass by you like an ambulance skirting past you - or maybe an ice cream truck. however you'd best describe it. alive, it darts towards you growing louder, warping higher in pitch, bringing itself ever closer until it's time to pass finally pass by. in those moments right after passing, it seems that you can still hear your dearest ones - your ambulance, ice cream track, what have you - speaking, and a different connection forms as the pitch warps down. the sound always grows faint, and continues to travel farther into infinity. in grappling, i feel as though i'm just trying to catch up, so i can hear one more echo. anything with semblance to keep me warm again, even if it's momentary.
lyrics
i
don't see you
in my dreams
like i used to
and maybe
you're still running away
like you did that night
during your hospice stay
when you come back to me
it'll all feel good again
if you come back to me
i hope it'll feel good again
and it must smell so nice
in your garden poised so high
most days i'll search for that scent
because i can feel you blooming all over again
can't wait for
you to tell me
what this all means
how you're perfect sweet
thought i saw you in the sky
but it was just the tears in my eyes
they never seem to dry
