Morning
My imagination's worse than the real thing.
Can I go out in the world today?
Every ounce of thought amplifies.
Makes me realize I should hide.
The day is old,
the night is young,
but I must go on.
I never thought that I'd need you more and more.
It'd be nice to remain asleep throughout my days.
Without complication there is no world I know.
Any given good day feels like I'm alive.
Even though I know deep down inside,
everyone could be just in my imagination.
Save my strength today.
I'll pass you anyway.
Keep going about your business.
My pressure's building up.
The future's what we strive for,
but the past is so alive.
I'm right behind you,
but never catching up.

Absent Through Time
You're getting colder by the hour.
Your freezing shadows pave the way.
They saw your face like pretty flowers.
But our will power won't seize the day,
it's only yours.
Are you up to start it all again?
It's long waiting 'til the end.
From the dust we rise up tall,
just to watch us fall.
Absent through time just for kicks.
Where have you been all these years?
How do you decide who to pick?
Their prayers fell on deaf ears.
Detach. Make all new molds.
Keep separated. We don't belong.
Rematch. We're not so broken.
You've been absent too long.

Something After
I walk so vaguely through another day.
Can't keep explaining I don't believe what you say.
Your word against ours.
There's no other way.
If they can't wait to fail us,
walk away.
And they'll say...
Just like me do they have a paradise
or something after?
Why is this more fitting for me than you?
I thought I knew you.
You think you break me.
Believe that I'm reborn again.
Until you see the passage in my eyes.
The rusty book maker,
you long for thee.
Join some words together.
Play with us.
It never worked for me,
so save your breath.
All you've put me through.
Is that enough?

Hanging Cloud
All the rain has gone away.
No more strikes of lightning down my face.
The darkest clouds will come back some day,
in any way they can.
Peel myself from certain decay.
Weathered face is gone.
It's too late.
The hanging cloud over my head,
will never go away.
Skies all the same.
They all run away.
Sun breaks the day.
Please go away.
Cloudy mess from the sky
pouring into my brain.
I've never been the same.

Planted
Listen to you all the time.
Mud on my fingers.
Buried deep beneath the time.
Thought I had more.
Every breath I leave behind,
left for you.
Demon of another kind.
Watching me constantly.
Say what I needed to say.
Be what I thought I should be.
Planted feet beneath the ground.
Mud in my toenails.
Stranded. I can't be found.
Lost in the dirt.
Every chance I left behind,
left for you.
Demons all around me nod.
Constantly watching me.
Far away from your garden.
Overgrown.
Keep floating on.
Far away into the abyss.
Slipping off until you're gone.
