blue waves smoothly shock me and tell me to let go and fly away from here now trust me and take my hand and come you are now allowed to flee away skies above the clouds fall down everytime and everywhere time goes by, you're tired of the sun lighting works undone blinded you're longing to have some rest under the moon before it's gone going through a mess of senses the true way to find the peace now is up to you find your way now trust yourself skies ahead you now take the shape of our present desires sounds/pictures collide to form a nebula of who you are

Empty Space 06:16
i open up my throat and pull out the barbed wire from my unhinged ribs i take away the shrapnel nestled in my hipbones are all the words other people have said to me and all the words i've said to myself the sky becomes flurries of ink-shaped falcons which hover for a moment before dissolving in the sky i will fill the empty space in me with clear rainwater until i am a body swimming in my own resurrection

Stardrive 04:01
the birds in his pantry have all flown away the four walls of his conscience will eat him at the stake and these fire ants won't save him take me all night long this road is where we belong (tonight) the flying carpet stopped flying us long ago cause the swans of my mothers have grown claws and they claw away at the cages i build around the feathers i have picked up for years and years light blue patterns i've never seen before carried me through endless roads of laughters and love i can't promise it'll be my last direction be my moon as long as i am your sun

and in the day like in the bright light of the night i'm made to love you she would recall the sun, and none of those days were real child and sweet no matter the colors they were boxed in no purpose was meant to be only the lights had guided her need for violence and so by the night, dark blue bitter tears were part of the deal but it was alright, it's always been alright and so she would go on and she will her eye would shine for eternity as a glimpse of her mind's infinity yet no one ever would understand the pain of the real colors she had to deliver familiar souls remain on the best of paths and still nothing could put an end to her glorious journey

our fathers taught us how to dance young, in frilled dresses, we balanced tip-toed on top of their feet, borrowed their suit jackets at weddings when the air got colder, though they were too big for us. we didn't have scabbed knees or split lips. our mothers styled our hair just right with sharp scissors, plastic combs, hot curling irons. we knew what was good for us, but we were dreamers, even then.

Blank Papers 04:02
head on desk motionless hours pass cannot write endlessly i strive for inspiration i'm running short of time but i'm still back to square one and the sounds of the silence i can't mute like the words of a million empty books tell me not to be sure i'm purposeful though i cannot withdraw i must pursue when the voice that pushes me forwards suddenly silences it's so hurtful to realize i have no reason to stay dance with me i'll dance with you and maybe throw you to the fire but nothing as much as i do will ever take you higher than the path we're bound to and the sounds of the silence i can't mute like the words of a million empty books tell me not to be sure i'm purposeful though i cannot withdraw i must go on

soothing dark around yet no way to shut down the endless alloy of body pain and racing thoughts sighting future times either about great goals or wasting the life i could have led tomorrow help someone lift me to this place where the body feels okay and keeps up with the mind's pace i just sleep my days away troubles bearing with the contract of earthlings the spirit disease of being tied to a body tired eyes can't see tired arms cannot upheave tired mind can't conceive i have everything but sleep hell i will lift me to this place where the body feels okay and keeps up with the mind's pace i can't sleep my days away

The time has come for you to go My darling Sorry for the brutal news I've never thought i'd tell you so But time will heal This incoming wound "What happened?" you might have been wondering So have I Love's a mystery The intensity of these feelings Couldn't last For eternity Find your way without me Tell him to remember me now Tell him to remember these times You can look back without a feel of Sorrow in your heart, I promise Please I swear you'll be alright, go Please, I swear you'll be alright so Go, Don't turn your back, don't waste time Go, You've got a life to design So, Dont let the others stop you Boy i trust in you And you shouldn't worry, we will still... Don't look for reasons to take the blame I'd rather hear that something's wrong with me I don't wanna drive you insane I'll be around, with my lone wolf disease It's not something one does get used to You say that i'm a bot Still for me it's hard Our spirits ever will come through This is not A farewell to my eyes
