Transient

|
|||
|
Trapped under the trees, broken, bound
Helpless and cold, sink through the ground
The count goes down to none, the bout leaves me weak
So tell me was it wrong to yearn for light on my cheek
But now I know that I am free
From everything I can't see
Transient I'm shedding skin
Take me where I've never been
Hold my head again for a moment
Eyes clouding over, my heart still and closed
Futile attempts bring purpose to dirt
So who are we to say if joy is worth all the hurt
But now I know that I am free
From everything I can't see
Transient I'm shedding skin
Take me where I've never been
Take me far

Effigy

Touch, teeth, blood, grief
Burn your effigy
This is where I'll be
Reach, search, death march
Burn your effigy
This is where I'll be
Lost thought, torn, caught
Burn your effigy
This is where I'll be
Dark games, fog, flames
Burn your effigy
This is where I'll be

Signs
Respect for the script
Caught up
Digressed from the start
Let go, we'll float
There's a lighthouse ahead
We can toss on the waves
We'll lock fingers again
Slip through the page
Sprawling life in your veins
Take some time for yourself
We will meet again
In time
Blank fields softly sway
Closed off
To strangle the day
Let go, we'll float
There's a lighthouse ahead
We can toss on the waves
We'll lock fingers again
Slip through the page
Sprawling life in your veins
Take some time for yourself
We will meet again
In time
Let go, we'll float
There's a lighthouse ahead
We can toss on the waves
We'll lock fingers again
Slip through the page
Sprawling life in your veins
Take some time for yourself
We will meet again
I know
I know
I know

Thought Experiment
03:10
|
|||
|
Silence eats up evenings
Resting anxiously
Everyday I'm waiting
For life to catch up with my thoughts
I was dreaming about what you said
My choice but I can't shake pointless what ifs
Once again you're crying
Hold your head I'm quiet
And everyday I'm waiting
For life to catch up with my thoughts
Once again you're crying
Tossing anxiously
And everyday I'm waiting
For life to catch up with my thoughts
Everyday I'm waiting
For this experiment to end

Dissolution
04:38
|
|||
|
Soft daylight fades and is lost
Whirlwind swept, stuck in all these thoughts
Peace of mind, free from dread
Of being alive, being alive
Longing for eternity
There is nothing, dissolution
Content
To pass
Alive
I find myself rooted to my bed again, unable to lift my head and face the day. I'm breathing in water and the last rays of light seem to wink out above me like stars being swallowed by the inky night. It is a cessation of self. It is a cessation of self
Head sinking, abyss I breath in
To this weight my legs submit
Peace of mind, free from dread
Of being alive, being alive
Longing for eternity
There is nothing, dissolution
Content
To pass
Alive
