Counting Each Step and the Space Between

He walks in his sleep
Counting each step and the space between
For a moment’s peace
His mind starts to drift
He remembers how much he hungers this
Oh, hungers this
He tries not to shake
His dust to the ground
With each time he fails
He sinks further down
He’s losing his faith
He used to be proud
Used to be more
He walks in his sleep
With an echo of ghost friendly whispers breathe
Oh just breathe
His mind starts to drift
He remembers how much he hungers this
Hungers this
He tries not to shake
His dust to the ground
But each time he fails
He sinks farther down
He’s losing his faith
He used to be proud
Used to be more
Used to feel more
Mother can you read us both to sleep
Like you did when
Father used to save a place for me
Things were good then
Remember how you said you’d always be with my best friend
Remember me
He walks in his sleep
Counting each step and remembers breathe
He tries not to shake
His dust to the ground
With each time he fails
He sinks farther down
He’s losing his faith
He used to be proud
Used to be more
He tries not to shake
His dust to the ground
With each time he fails
He sinks further down
He’s losing his faith
He used to be proud
Used to be more
Used to feel more
Used to be more
