off season

from we are the garages (vol 3) by the garages

by Shmucku

flames will take you too
there will always be more room
so to ease this burden
we will turn our caps in
and enjoy the Off Season


the days you will cherish
they’re all lost to blur and turned to mist
like translating a blackout 
your whole life will just fade out
who you are is muffled by doubt


time will blink its eye
the best days just pass you by
still you keep on swinging
though the days that you’re living
never happened at all


all this time
you had thought you were alive
but your just signs and numbers
and you’ll be toiling under
your true gods, forever


and yes, we love you
far too much to tell the truth
we’re the ones that are gracious
since we gave you your faces
and the stories that make your essence


time will blink its eye
the best days just pass you by
still you keep on swinging
though the days that you’re living
never happened at all


it’s best you lie to yourself
you couldn’t be happy as anybody else
so you choose to believe them
all the memories given
by the Off Season
