|
Nothing of a man was he |
|
His true face of sleep, a deception |
|
Fell through all the way to the bottom |
|
Learned to hold |
|
Again we vowed not to hold sacred |
|
But to damn that hollow gaze |
|
Unsteady on these shorelines |
|
Mute to an un-thought scream |
|
Another word fell silent |
|
Like the static in their eyes |
|
Against all fleeing logic |
|
We let our minds go blank |
|
Why define ourselves |
|
By misguiding light? |
|
How can we receive |
|
The static in their eyes? |
|
Each blink of light, an accuser |
|
Each unlit shape, an assassin |
|
Crawled the outer rim |
|
With his back exposed |
|
By the shadows unending |
|
Fought off the stares |
|
Again we vowed not to hold sacred |
|
But to damn that hollow gaze |
|
Unsteady on these shorelines |
|
Mute to an un-thought scream |
|
Another word fell silent |
|
Like the static in their eyes |
|
Against all fleeing logic |
|
We let our minds go blank |
|
Nullify the ego |
|
Stay right back, stay right back |
|
How can we receive |
|
The static? |
|
Fear that strangles spirit |
|
Denial speaks the truth |
|
Fear that strangles spirit |
|
Crushes me and you |
|
Wicked are the senses |
|
Wicked are the words |
|
Give me the static |
|
Again we vowed not to hold sacred |
|
But to damn that hollow gaze |
|
Unsteady on these shorelines |
|
Mute to an un-thought scream |
|
Another word fell silent |
|
Like the static in their eyes |
|
Against all fleeing logic |
|
We let our minds go blank |
