Missing a Heartbeat - COVID Collaboration
Collaboration with Portland artist NFr01 during COVID shutdown.
Cunning wit, temptatious heart
Promises of what you bring
These are just illusions honey
Of your inevitable sting
Long nights messing around
Searching for familiar faces
Hiding in social solitary
Holding on to empty embraces
Draw the curtains
Drown out the light
Ignore the clock
to fabricate the night
And when I'm lost
You're always down to meet
But your warm touch is
Missing a heartbeat
It’s missing a heartbeat
No reward for all the risk
Your blanket of comfort is fake
But the bond can't be broken
mind, body, soul break
Dive into the shallow pool
these rules are made to break
But little did we know
the pool is a bottomless lake
Draw the curtains
Drown out the light
Ignore the clock
to fabricate the night
And when I'm lost
You're always down to meet
But your warm touch is
Missing a heartbeat
It’s missing a heartbeat
It’s missing a heartbeat
Reaching to breach the surface
pulling riptide has come and went
realizing what's left for us
Is our mutual descent
