Makeshift Clay You Lyrics

Your last breath escaped while I held you in my arms.
Drops fall in the water.
Drop as you have from my days.
You promised you'd meet me,
in the sky when the time was right as a ghost you'll stay at my side.

Not able to take my life,
for fear of rejection into the light.
So young am I.

Knowing I'll walk till the wrinkles come,
days don't go by where I don't spit wounded letters at time for taking its time.

Not able to take my life,
for fear of rejection into the light.
So young am I.

Your last breath escaped while I held you in my arms.
Counting and counting till our reunion.
Still you can't place your hands on my face.
Alone alone with spirits and time that takes its time.

Not able to take my life for fear of rejection into the light.
So young am I.

Cover art for Makeshift Clay You lyrics by Poison the Well

This song seems to be about someone who lost someone close to them, and wants to reunite with them in Heaven, but this person doesn't want to commit suicide, because they fear that they would be rejected from Heaven (Not able to take my life. For fear of rejection into the light.). The only thing this person can do is wait, which is why they curse that they are so young.
