"Greetings In Braille" lyrics - THE ELECTED

If my senses fail, stay with me 'til they go
'Cause I don't want to be alone
Greetings in Braille, they'll describe everything
Colors aren't everything
And if you see me down at the liquor store
Please don't tell my dad
And if you see my dad down at the liquor store
Don't tell me anything at all
And the people you brought
Are just drainpipes bringing trash to the ground
And the memories are just picture cards
One night stands and breakdowns
And you were cold, tired and old as you'd ever looked that night
And we were warned, yeah
We were warned not to stay out too late
But some things were worth getting in trouble for
So now that you finally failed
Just like you said you would, down to the last detail
Well, if living's such hell, here's to your dying days
You won't have to be afraid
And the heroes you met were just fiction
Yeah, with higher expectations
And your friends grew up faster than you got successful
Told you to keep it up. Good comes to those who work
And the stories they told you were true, babe
Your mom really went crazy
But that doesn't have to be you
No
And I miss Tara and Melissa, Allen and John
And you'll never have friends like you did when you were young
But our bodies were pulled away and swept out to the sea
And I'd call and say hi if I thought you'd remember me
'Cause some things are worth leaving old memories for
If my senses fail, stay with me 'til they go
'Cause I don't want to be alone
Greetings in Braille, should describe everything
'Cause you can't see anything from here
From here, you can't see nothing at all
