Sinking

Every time I look I'm sinking
Every time I blink I disappear
Traps surrounding all good feelings
heavens will you open up for me
I wasn't always a stranger
or have I always been just never noticed it
Every time I look I'm sinking
traps surrounding all good feelings
heavens will you open up for me
what to do with all my treasons
make amends and throw them off a bridge
there is hope for all my seasons
heaven help me
the lights went out
I try to keep my head above the water
without it getting chopped off
but what happens
every time I look I'm sinking
I don't want to sink in mirrors
tell me I will make the grade
cut the lines tied to my fingers
I don't want to just play this game

Terror

The light, through the trees, shines down on me
The light, through the trees, shines down on me
The light, through the trees, shines down on me
The light, through the trees, shines down on me
The beast bared its teeth dripping with ink
it bit my dear sister and now she can't breath
and the light through the trees shines down on me
the light through the trees sines down on me
My head stings, my ears ring and I can't feel my feet
There's a hole of muted screams where my heart used to be
the light through the trees shines down on me
the light through the trees shines down on me
She said "come on its time to go, before our parents start to worry"
In a flash of teeth and red it happened
I held my breath until it stopped
You've done worse to me so I don't mind
Cutting out your eyes with a Swiss army knife
Ahhhhh

Rainbow
03:22

Wasted days
walking up a rainbow pining for his name
but he was alone
swollen between dreaming and the ground below
all he ever wanted
was to prove he was living
until he dove off the rainbow
sentience was a charade
tumbled in a tizzy
circus stomach and awe struck
he steeled his decision
stepping into the hollow
and his body smashed the ground for the first time
and he broke is chest his legs his arms and one eye
and with his good eye he looked up at the rainbow
and with a scarlet smile he laugh, laugh, laughed and choked
rescued by
a princess a heathen and a skeleton sky
they took him away
gave him a name
adoring his pale nervous frame
he was sewn up
all he ever needed
was to show some prudence
or to just make up his mind
throw caution into the wind

She

Wind will blow
Blood will glow
we marvel at our names
suddenly
quite suddenly
our eyes change into flames
alive and awake
the world melts off our faces
and down the drain
light comes and goes
days fold and close
we are the same
different worlds
different names
we are the same
I want to be your heart
I want to be your heart
I want to be
soft and sweet
fruit from a tree
bleeds red between your fingers
my teeth bare the confirmation of soft escape
we're naked in the light
different worlds
different names
we are the same
light comes and goes
days fold and close
we are the same
we have become humans again
and we understand what it means to say
I want to be your heart
I want to be your heart
I want to be your heart
heart
heart
heart
heart...
