1000 burning suns away, floats a little rock where people lay
when the sky is pink they know its day. 6 hours darkness at the cost of rain.
they've never ventured into outer space, but they know who moulded each ones face.
they speak softly and always hear back,
never apostatize their Fathers will.
they trust in hope thats hearing back, staying steady and keeping in tact.
do we know who we are
1000 dying stars away, sits in the self centred milky way
is the golden child named planet earth, they cannot bear the thought of singular birth.
we must be all alone you see, nobodies ever talked to me,
and they're not wasting time looking around at the sky when they know what is bound.
they always know they're smarter now,
losing steady and losing tact.
do we know who we are

Bird Shooting

there's something in the air thats patrolling fed up faces, writing maps of their arrangements
a crow does not forget assailants.
a caw breaches new ear drums, a snare follows the beat of
a pin pulled from black feathers, only hunting in grey weathers
"i saw him!"... "you were him"
"i heard words!"... "you spoke them"
hide shot down wings tonight but tell my father im alright
crimson will turn white as snow, but what about the shade of feathers from a crow
will they begin to make it whole
im moving faster but im going nowhere, my gun is loaded but i just cant bare to see
blood on my hands and feathers beneath the tree.
theres a beast inside of you too, that scans the crowd like they do
that panders for escape routes through doors that lead to old wounds.
there birds will not confront you, just circle and mimic moves,
as you ask if they will free you, they'll close in an discern truth.
"i saw truth!"... "right through you"
"then you knew!"... "what to do"
hide shot down wings tonight, but tell my father im alright.
crimson will turn white as snow, but what about the shade of feathers from a crow
will they begin to make it whole
im moving faster but im going nowhere, my gun is loaded but i just cant bare to see
blood on my hands and feathers beneath the tree.
i admit im wrong again will someone come down, absolve me from the self.
all around i can see echoes of me grabbing my wrists and bending them,
and its tearing me up again, im falling so fast.

Betray Me

decide one last time, then close your eyes to see the yellow hue
shining through the blinds, reflecting right off you.
empty all the old compartments that you know. all of this is taking its toll.
betray me again, betray me again,
an echo confused about if it will end.
betray me again, betray me again,
uncontrollable clone with a devilish grin.
you cant shake it out, it roots in your cells - and then one by one they become something else.
when will part two be part of you
you see the glowing change
shimmering desperately. and gleaming all over all i can see.
a foreign resemblance that masks intuition and takes over the other part of me.
betray me again, betray me again,
all versions of me running through my head.
betray me again, betray me again,
they fight for the throne only one part can win.
i see it in me now what we talked about, a key thats been stuck combination forgot.
when will part two be part of you
you see the glowing change

well you say you speak for God but you dont know him,
you just think,
that your will is his will, that your works are his.
but little do you know he wouldn't trade a life for glory
and instead you would burn your friends in front of others soon.
you set him on fire and with your pitchforks,
put him on a platter like a feast
for wolves.
and you're the alpha male with a hungry pack of sons.
feed em up your starving pups
why not one.
you've never killed, you've never stole.
you've never betrayed a brother, so why not one. one cant hurt.
and then he goes naked and alone. trusted your words.
now he's frozen.
now his neck bleeds blood. that shrink will fill you up,
but its not enough.
the snow fall is coming in, and its surrounding us like its all in,
and i dont know how to save your stupid pups,
and frankly i wish they would just shut up.
you killed my friend and you abused
the right to where a badge in honor of
a holy communion, and now look at
what youve done.

everything around me is blooming and unsettling
forsaken image dancing. you call it up but cannot see it meddle with your memory.
everyone around me has accepted that we're not free.
side by side in twos and threes, broken drones that cannot speak.
it messes with your memory.
everything around me is blooming and unsettling
forsaken image dancing. you call it up but cannot see it meddle with your memory of you
even though i saw the truth for me -
i could be in looma sleep for days and days and days.

my stable friend who shares my name.
do we share thoughts or just this face.
where echoes come from, we all go,
you lead the way right down that hole. we all go.
everytime i look down at my own skin
im seeing tattoos that ive never gotten.

Acceptance

like curtains pulled, providing brand new light for worn out walls
they leave their marks
the lowlight says they hid the damaged parts, and they looked a lot better in the dark.
like plans revealed, when words penned down don't reflect what you've seen.
two roads between
a boxed in mime and what you really see.
when this division comes to an end - my war thats ended begins in your head.
for now, while truth is truth but its not one/won, yet to discover part two of you
like moons creating
all our waves, the biggest ones you've seen
crashing down yet beautifully destroying empty fields you see for
miles and miles, on and on and on.
they gleam in sun, together become one
swallow up whats underneath, transforming what you used to see for
miles and miles, on and on and on
with empty space now blooming into you
dust settling on what we need to do
with no end in sight.
"betray me again, betray me again", running through my head
You never found out a way out - run inside my head [right inside my head]
You found the way you see the glowing change
