36TH & ATHANIA. Lyrics by Byron Henderson

the past never passes when our shadows fall. (Deluxe Edition) [Bad Ending]

2022

[Intro]
Look
Check
Was on a ship that was sinking
Watching as we nosedive to the deep end
Some scream and some weep, you just hold tight and breathe in
Overboard they all go, centuries away from back when we were human cargo
All of your senses weaken
[Verse 1]
No years sober, more years pass not knowing myself
No where near rich, but can't sit back ignoring my wealth
All that bodily harm I dealt
Unequipped to properly mourn
The possibilities of karma felt across Earth
Dove head first into the sea
My emotional support system supporting me
You'd better spread the word
Another cross to bear, a cross to burn
Brought my earnings to the boatman
He said that I should turn back, cause
[Hook 1]
A lot of things have changed since I came
I feel the only thing that stayed the same are the reasons that I'm here
I don't care who's the blame, I ain't done making my bed
You don't see what I'm seeing
No longer can you nod to the beat of my heartache
How much my friends mean, I don't know where to start, wait
Cause coming where I'm from, y'all can keep y'all guns
36th and Athania is where I found my love
[Verse 2]
To whom it may concern, you live and learn
Know what bridge to cross and which to burn
Suicide is a cliffhanger preceded by life's twists and turns
Vicious lies shift lives, issues leaving you zip tied
Day ones can switch in one day and use what they learned to twist knives
But never yours though
They've got your back, you've got their torso
Metamorphosis, was dwarfing folks before you left the porch, bro
All your bars help them see the light like you communicate through Morse code (please)
Someone is guiding me to paradise
My trauma will not taint me, with love I'll be surrounded
Unshackled in the same sea that those before me drowned in
My skin was frowned on, yet love I found it
A single person that I can count on, she kept me grounded
Brought me back from the dead for how long
Is trust enough to call her my home?
Pulled me to shore with the same rope I was bound with
Ties severed, no clue of who you'll become
You've come a long way, don't go the wrong way
Just listen to me for once
[Hook 2]
No clue what home is
I know what alone is like
I'm losing focus
Should I go towards the light or the laughter
It's a tortured life
But my chapter's got to end sometime
Someday, I'll get it right, ahhhh
For now, say goodnight, ahhhh
That's where I found my love
But it was only ever for you, hun
Not us
