Remission

staring contest, the reflection always wins
but my sight is the prize, so I give up my eyes
at least this way the loss comes easy when I decide to try again
break in my new vision
because I can never see what's wrong with me
its just this ever looming feeling
that what I do is never the right move
constant missteps in the process of finding an end
go and reach a hand into my dreams
see if you believe that this is what I have inside of my head
I'll try and pretend that my fears mean nothing to me
I'm waiting
for remission

Topsoil

your eyes were my green light
and I couldn't stop moving if I tried
dragging feet to hold you closer in my mind
topsoil burial swallows my sky
open up again, opened up again
there's no blame that could be placed
not on you, not on me
hoping for separate things
tangled up in you
I feel safe but I'm left hanging
no change in what we see
but neither of us will cut me free
I didn't ask to be something you'll never forget
spare me of your ache
apologies at my wake
I've been searching for nothing
its like I am the bones inside your feet
the farther you walk the more I ache
but attached to you I must stay
so excuse my intentions and what I wish to be
because no matter the good I think it'd do
its not good enough for you
and I'm not good enough for me
I don't blame you
how'd I expect to be of worth to someone else
when I can barely find worth in my self?

Sovereign Spirit
01:56

Black rose, are you lonely?
step out of their shadow
and walk into life with me
Icons of power exist to validate peasantry
Forcing their hands to keep our heads low
But I carry on, eyes to the sun
life is the meaning, truth is a feeling
do you feel anything?
push us to the wall, we'll fight back with understanding
you'll see your worth when you're put in your place
this is judgements face
"To every tyrant, I declare this faith unbound
my spirit's sovereign, I kneel no longer to the crown"
now your head is in the ground

"You are all the actor. Marvelously skilled in playing many parts, and in getting lost in the mazes of your own mind, and the entanglements of your own affairs as if this were the most urgent thing going. But behind the scenes, in the green room, you might say in the very back of your mind, in the very depths of your soul, you always have a very tiny sneaking suspicion that you might not be the you that you think you are." - Alan Watts
Pulling strings,
your blueprints drawn outside the lines of reality
we are only actors in a dream.
wake up
end scene

Nature
01:53
|
|||
|
I've come clean with my reflection
I'm responsible for divesting you of my true self
The selfless nature of the world alone
we flow as one, light streams from eye to "I" to I
if "I" could take back ever feeling that
we are not the same
I'd be free of these chains ingrained in me

Cotton

|
Unwind my cotton bind, you're off again
too far to see I'm subsiding
content with nothing, ebb and flow you've shown me
too far to see I'm subsiding
Call out again to weave us close
just as fast, you've grown morose
Unwind me
