Pilot Waves Songtext
von Icarus the Owl

You left via train tracks on a Monday soaked with rain.
You didn't stop until the mountains were small rocks out of frame.
What am I supposed to do?
You got your noose around my neck, you never want me coming back.
I should have ran after you that rainy night, before your car went off the side.
Meaningless motion on a shallow empty frame.
They pass the time but I still picture your name.
Tell me how to bring you back.
I'll tell you that I was wrong.
Your face is still beautiful with all your skin gone.


Tell me this is all but delusion.
The witching hour begins now.
The dimples in your cheeks are drenched in gasoline.
It's but a small victory for the ballad of you and me.
As you're taken away, as your soul leaves this place, even with your body maimed, i'll love you the same.
I'll try to be or feign a better man and put the sky up in your cloudy head.
Take a step where the light has to go.
How could we fail to find a steady hand?
My sun won't rise or fall without you here.
Our beach is rubble; our lighthouse is gone.
