Hail The Sun – Mourning Sickness lyrics

Do you ever get the feeling
That you're floating
Do you ever get the sense that your body is gone

[Chorus:]
Awake, out of focus
Unnerved
Unnerved
This place might not be the same one that I know so well
Out of sync with time again, feels so real this time
Out of sync and violently aware that something’s off

[Verse 1]
Technically there’s a chance I might be in a dream
Repeating scenes again
Witnessing grieving friends
Mother’s caring eyes
They carry pain I’ve never seen, so hysterically

“He’s still here. He’s still here.” Where?
“He’s still here. He’s still here.” (x2)

I’m a floating skeptic, who are they burying
Curious perspective, don’t know when to lose
Like that time
We met disaster
Covered up in sheets of plaster
Driving faster!
I taste the pavement on my tongue
Punctured lung
Laughing off the warning just because
Faltered breathing. I’m not leaving

[Chorus]

They’ve seen enough
They’ve seen enough
Carry on
Carry on

Brother, why won’t you answer?
You seem to suffer like I’m gone…
No! Is that my cadaver?
This can’t be over! Take me home
No! Don’t you put me under
Just hold me closer
To me, I’m not gone

I’m not breathing
I’m not leaving
I’m not leaving
I’m not leaving

I’m a floating skeptic
You will let them bury me
Curious perspective
Don't know when to lose
Like that time
We met disaster
Covered up in sheets of plaster. Driving faster!
I taste the pavement on my tongue
Just because

“He’s still here…" (x4)
