about

Chapter Eight – An Omen
A row ensues. Sarah locks The Actress out of their apartment after she threatens to leave once more. Lightning crashes as a storm brews on the coast. The wind whips up and down their street, blowing leaves in every direction. A dog barks in the distance. The Actress, in a bitter rage, decides to leave, and drives off. Sarah weeps in her apartment, alone. Both parties feel the weight of both grief and guilt as they realize what has just happened.

lyrics

Listen / you’re not talking again / I’m touching your hand / it’s cold
Listen / you keep breathing in / so violent and tense / controlled
I told you / I was leaving again / I meant it this time / I lied
I left / the car running again / the doors are all locked / I tried
We’re moving in popular time / we linger two half steps in line / the walls of the room are too wide / our bodies get trapped while inside
Do you feel it / when you’re lying in bed / the crick in your neck / it’s red
Does it hurt you / are you crying again? / does it sit in your lungs? / like lead
The dogs always bark in the night / an omen ignored every time / in the flash of the beaming headlights / the sound of a preventable crime / your crime
The plans that we made as young kids / were renewed, then destroyed and relived / does it make sense to tell you like this / do you want me to tell you like this?
I thought I heard you on the coast last night / it was only a dream
