Dragging

How long has it been?
This doesn't seem like a fight we can win
Days are feeling twice as long
Hours dragging me along
As the months pass
There is time enough at last
Within this shrinking box
I will outlast

Carapace
05:58
|

This place isn't for you
Safe from the likes of
I didn't choose this
It grew over time
Forming organically
Until it was mine
Keeping you away
Hiding all my crimes
I've got this carapace
Where I feel safe inside
You can try to find me here
But I will always hide
The world will not relent
It makes me turn away
Throughout the years I've learned
There is no other way
I hide inside myself
Chitinous walls too slick to climb
There's no escaping this place
And no one gets inside
Carapace
Keep me safe
Hold me in
Your warm embrace

Imposter
04:51
|
|||
Digging further downward
Labelling myself a coward
Posturing imposter
Folds before the river
Obstacles to navigate
But it's so dark
And I can't see straight
Feel around for the knives
Collect stigmata
Leaving red behind
Again I self-flagellate
Breaking down
Detritus state
Pieces of a bitter man
Against myself
A final stand

Outsider
04:33
|
|||
Worn out welcome
Expected outcome
Seen this before
I'll find the door
Don't tell me twice
Hints are dropping like flies
I'm seen as a vice
Twisting your core
Here we are again
Outside looking in
What did I expect
I'm a fucking reject
|

Anchor
05:18
|
|||
Are you here?
With me?
It's so dark and stark
where could you be?
Anchors linked
We can meet
At the bottom
Out of sight
Out of our minds
At least we
Have somewhere to be
Far from ok
But close to me

Q
05:20
|
|||
If there's a way
I'll find it
Set logic aside
A reasoning behind it
A well constructed lie
Stretched it out
Aligned it
It makes sense inside
Spread the word
I've found it
A truth declassified
A truth declassified
A truth declassified
A truth declassified

Salt
05:20
|
|||
Crashing waves
Crashing waves
Cresting and breaking
Breaking me down
My base of salt
Is melting away
Less to stand on
Every day
Weeds come up
Through the ruins
My body a temple
Buried by the jungle
There is always too much
Breaking point at the clutch
How do you even try
To ignore and suppress the pain inside

Sunrise
03:55
|

Every day
The plot becomes more apparent
Every day
I'm torn between boredom and panic
Hour by hour
I'm staring off into nothing
Day by day
I'm so depressed that I'm tired of laughing
Sun rises
I don't know why
I open my eyes
Curse the sky
I stand up
Another day
Walking the loop
Wearing a groove
