Battleship Lyrics by Res Lauren

Antifake (The Letter, The Memory)

2019

[Chorus 1]:
If it rains it pours, when the sun is sore
Feel for open doors, trying not to drown
Barefoot on the floor now that summer’s here
I’ve spent my whole life without you around
Lonely? Do you know my homie?
Not a new place, just a new town
We were never close, but he would still hold me
Said he knew my heart by the sound
[Verse 1]:
Now I’ve peeled petals too long, I’m pushing pedals to live
War cry sounds like a song, once in a dream like this
If reminiscing sorta feels wrong 'cause it don’t lie
Why’d it never heal like his? What’d I miss?
Only found love, never gifted
Wonder if that’s why I go missing, miss me, missed it
Only stick around for the downhill, sunshine, upright
Outta here, off to go spill
Often up late with the red eyes, lie low
Times up, take back all that I give
I’m listening, blood thin, finally done wishing, fishing
Floating like I’m frozen, I’m frisky, risking
Rest never come, still drifting, empty
Sheets at a standstill, ink still dripping
Imagine
Hide from the moon in the static
Froze when you’re looking right at it
No acrobat but my heart’s in bloom
Nowadays none of that matters
Caught the thing just before it shatters
Press pause just before the action
Shadows intact but they start in two
[Chorus 2]:
If it rains it pours, when the sun is sore
Feel for open doors, trying not to drown
Barefoot on the floor now that summer’s here
I’ve spent my whole life without you around
Lonely? Do you know my lonely?
Not a new place, just a new town
And we were never close, but she would still hold me
Said she knew my heart by the sound
[Verse 2]:
Light on the sill, much dimmer now
Need to keep a flicker through the winter, how?
Sticky eyes glimmer in the moonlight
Mirror might not remember, wow
2-slice summer with the butter knife
I dove deeper than a dream could
Momma on the beeper
Tracing the sunrise
Running toward the fear of no freedoms
Rely on the beeper just to breathe, um
Counting down the breaths 'til I don’t need 'em/needle
Idle as the efforts out in Sweden, time to pick the poison
Needing more Fridas leaders, re-absorb onyx
Ways become windows, we became see-through
Warmth for those winters
Idle interior, solace inferior, built from exterior down
Chambers are broke, I’m out in the open, gave me a reason to drown
Don’t say the reason is doubt
Focal point fade away, made it to misery, shit ain’t no mystery how
Sicker got busy, busy tread water
Blisters break open and over and out
Prayers and the priors, the pressure, the poetry
Potent as knowing a sound
Knowing worth knowing you’re down
Someone worth showing around
Keep the door open, it's closed while I cradle this corner
Euphoria won’t stick around
Most won’t stick up for anything
Slowly eroding, don’t mention me
We find another way out
Hell of a crowd
Hell of a summer
Remember? We were the lonely and wild
Imagine
Me racing you, no traffic
Know it when you’re looking right at it
No acrobat but my heart’s in bloom
Nowadays none of that matters
Slipped through my hand and it shatters
Press play just before the action
Shadows intact, but the heart’s in-two
