Is it the time that makes you surrender?
Or those moments of life that you just can’t remember?
This will break down
And you will acknowledge the beauty of everything that you can’t do without
To witness the end of the earth
Begin to uncover the broken past that burdens you, OH!!!
Always clinging to the roots of empty space
Strung together and entwined while all these
Thoughts surround you
Always clinging to the roots of empty space
(Is there anything to tame this growing mass)
Time before you
Strung together and entwined like a woven web
I want to feel as though every moment is a fascination
Opened up the world and the growing space within my crowded mind
I can’t help it If this goes unnoticed
If this goes unnoticed, will you take the time
Take the time to just see that
When I was a young man, so full of life, so full of dreams
I wouldn’t accept this fate laid out before me
Thoughts surround you
Always clinging to the roots of empty space
So please just take me back, take me back, take me back
To a place where time eludes me
To a place where time eludes me

Where were you when I was lost?
A man with a burning desire
I needed a prophet to bring me up higher
To you
But you brought me down
And now the stars implode
A cosmic reign of terror
This world is so alone
Let this be
Let this be a monument for the lone soul
Dismantled, awakened
Dismantled, awakened I’m finally home
Let this be
A flowing stream
Through your mind and through your whole being
You cannot falter when you face the pain
I swear that these moments are here for clarity in time, in time
You cannot falter when you feel the strain
I swear that through sorrow you will feel this beauty in time, in time
Embrace your seclusion
You’ll see the hurdle as a stepping stone
Embrace your seclusion
You’ll see the hurdle as a stepping stone
It may seek to pull you down
You must let it rupture
Blech
Let this be
Let this be a monument for the lone soul
Dismantled, awakened
Dismantled, awakened I’m finally home
Embrace your seclusion
You’ll see the hurdle as a stepping stone
Embrace your seclusion
You’ll see the hurdle as a stepping stone
It may seek to pull you down
You must let it rupture

Of Discourse

I have the mind that breaks down the barriers of time
Pushing and pulling, the words I cannot find
To tell you what’s inside, I can’t bear the lies
These words fall flat they fall with my pride
I can’t let go
Of these moments, all this time alone
Reaching out to find that you don’t know
Who I am, who you really are
In this realm of undiscovered discourse
Constrained, I feel from exploring the numerous complexities
Lingering in my thoughts
A concept I cannot express
Concrete thoughts, lost in the mix
In the mix of it all
Will you ever notice?
Who I am, who you are?
Lost in the mix, I cannot falter
Lost in my head, why do I bother?
Why do I bother?
I can’t let go of all these moments
To speak, to hear, it makes no difference
Outside of this world we find the answers
Most we cannot describe
Constrained, I feel from exploring the numerous complexities
Lingering in my thoughts
A concept I cannot express

The Current

Now I’m standing on a precipice
I take one last step
The ground leaves my feet
I take one last breath
Now my mind is set to fly away
The current pushing me to stay
Weightless, weightless
Weightless of all my strain
The water rushes through my veins
The cold ripples bathe my skin
My thoughts dissipate in my head and I can only see
The black before me and the light I can be
A clarity above I free myself for one last time
I long for something feels right
When I wash ashore, I feel the wind across my face
I’m wanting more, this feeling etched into
My perception of a new world, where I can bring to life
My creations lost in time
How can I go back home?
The man I used to be, he’s gone
When I wash ashore, I feel the wind across my face
I’m wanting more, this feeling etched into my
Perception of a new world, where I can bring to life
My creations lost in time
The water rushes through my veins
The cold ripples bathe my skin
My thoughts dissipate in my head and I can only see
The black before me and the light I can be
A clarity above I free myself for one last time
I long for something feels right
