Beat it Back

Nothing left
Just handed around
My neck
Squeezed tight
It’s what i am
I beat it back
Tells me
My first name
I’m longer
Now too
The orchard near me
For 15 years i’ve gone
Sweetest tartest
The wasps circle round
I beat it back
Hey there biped
My scale filled with sand
We haven’t met before
But now we meet again
You know the sound
Of a short little name
Lllac door
Lilac door
Open me again
I beat it back
They showed me i left
Their sudden death
Suddenly
Things were clear

Just Another Day

Haze peels back
It peels back
It’s all the same
Just another day
Always the same
Just another day
Razor moving
Skin soothing
Water flowing
Further away
Drugs soothing
My bloods moving
Time to break
Our world away
Always the same
Just another day
Numb i seem
I’m a mirror of you
Shallow i seem
I’m reflecting you
Sharing in the
Shape of your space
Breathing your air
Moving your face
Taking your place
You’re taking my place
Taking your place
You’re taking mine
You i’m taking
Just another day
Horrible things
Happen all alone
I’m not alone
I’m in your home
I have a place
It’s here with you
I have a space
It’s inside you
I’m not alone
We’re in our home
You’re not alone
You’re not alone
You have a place
That’s here with me
In your space
Inside me
Numb i seem
I’m a mirror of you
Shallow i seem
I’m reflecting you
Sharing in the shape of your space
Breathing your air
Moving your face
Taking your place
You’re taking my place
Taking your place
You’re taking mine
You i’m taking
Just another day

COME BACK
02:25

|

Close your eyes
You’re yourself again
Path to close my eyes
My whole life i closed my eyes
I’ve come back
Time to be me again
May all my pain come back
I thought i was wrong
I never was wrong
I never was wrong
I've been whole all along
I thought i was wrong
I thought i was wrong
I never was wrong
I’ve been whole all along
May all my pain
Come back
To me
Come back

HOLLOW
02:47
|
|
||
I lay real still
And closed my eyes
I breathed real deep
And said good bye
I’m not a dream
I’m not a lie
I know who I am
And I know why
In my sky
There’s only ten stars
I know my name
I know who I are
I could not be my answer
While I was the one I blamed
I had forgotten
All of my
Holding on my hand
I wanted to know
If I am a circle
Am I hollow

WHOLE

Time to be me again
My hole life
I thought I was whole
What I thought was wrong
Now my world is gone
All these years
I’ve wasted my time
With all these feelings
Remaining Inside
Buried young one
Child inside
Rotting child
Corrupted inside
The Idiot’s Face
Is on your face
Contorts and squeezes
The horror of ruin
May all this pain
Go back to you
May all my pain
Return to you
The Idiot’s Face
Is on your face
Contorts and squeezes
The horror of ruin
The Idiot’s Face
Is on your face
Distorts and bleeds
The horror of ruin
The hate from
The past
The child from
The past
The child from
The past
Made my reality at last

THE WAY
01:47
|
|

I have controlled my body
My mind
And my mouth
I’m on the wave
I’m am the wave
Better than you
I have controlled my body
My mind
And my mouth
I’m on the wave
Better than you
I hurt myself
In front of you
I have to suffer
I wanna tuch myself
And feel
I am strong
I’m starting to feel
I’m on the wave

while the wind blows on in side
i stumble softly through my eyes
i can believe where this has gone
i'm left in here out far beyond
