letra de shoulder season. - ben zaidi

shoulder season and the sand is cold
it sent a chill sliding into my soul
twelve hundred miles south of home
but it’s tugging at my sleeve
my mom called but the service was bad
she couldn’t hear half the words that i said
i said i’d try her back but my phone went dead
and the wind kicked up the leaves

the empty beach, the whistling air
the hollows you’d forgot were there
the sun blinks back with a lonely glare
that buckles on the beach
when life’s just out of reach
sometimes i catch myself tryna be god
teasing whispers out of the fog
my therapist said curing pain with thoughts
is like tryna drown the rain
i had a thought but i forgot what it was
so i’ll sit on the dock till it’s darker than dusk
and i’ll talk and i’ll talk and i’ll never shut up
till my mind runs off the page

i’m pulling levers, raising weights
tryna keep the needles straight
drowning out the sounds of fate
that rumble in the breach
when life’s just out of reach
when life’s just out of reach

i’ve chased the wind, i’ve chased that love
the kind that kids draw pictures of
the vacancy sign swinging high above
in a sky as bright as bleach
my life’s just out of reach

i won’t go
where you go

shoulder season in a tourist town
lush lawns all rusted brown
no lifeguard to stop me now
if i walked into the sea
