The Final Period on a Run-on Sentence

作曲：Nob Vanne

作词：Nob Vanne

I've been talking to the plaster

I've been whispering to the dust

Tryna oil the hinges of our suffocating trust

There were commas in the kitchen

There were dashes in the hall

A thousand end ends written on the bedroom wall

We never found the rhythm

We never found the rhyme

Just a breathless frantic race

Against the ticking of the time

It was a paragraph of longing a chapter of not yet

A rambling tangled story of a long term debt

And I'm placing the final period on a run on soul

Watching the ink go black and the silence take control

No more buts or maybes

No more if only in white

Just a single heavy dot beneath a charcoal sky

It's the end of the breath

It's the closing of the book

The final study in unapologetic look

Yeah the sentence is over

The story's been read

With a final period for the things we never said

The ink is soaking deep into the fibers of the wood

A tiny circular grade for that we thought that we could

It's a small and quiet violence

A microscope again

To the lover and the ghost and the memory of a friend

The air is finally still

The vibrations hit the ground

A solid certain safety and the lack of any sound

I'm putting down the pen

I'm rubbing out the lightning

In the longest sentence of my entire life tonight

If I look back at the pages are

They worth the paper

Used a million frantic words

For a heart that's just confused

But a point is a point and a stop is a stop

The final heavy mercury wait drop

And I'm placing the final period on a run on soul

Watching the ink go black and the silence take control

No more buts or maybes

No more if only in why

Just a single heavy dot beneath a charcoal sky

It's the end of the breath

It's the closing of the book

The final studying unapologetic look

Yeah the sentence is over the story's been read

We're the final period for the things we never said

Full stop deep breath

The punctuation of a localized death

No more words no more ink

Just a space to finally think period
