rejoice in a mortal hymn
who's gonna take us in
that's all that's left to win
secondary feelings
like we're always gonna win
confused how it all began
but you light the way
to the end
received by our origin
a bleeding history repeated dynasty
echoing murders on the wall
until it falls
hiding the seeds
with the future breed
if it's who we bring
but the rites of spring
swallowed the promise ring
in the aged
ageless dream
somewhere else
turning towards oblivion
one is done
when you're caught in the spiral
but you're hypnotized
like you're mesmerized
when you tell a lie
that side to side
will have us lateral
from time to time
if you're sealing my throne

Garden of Tears

reach back in a collective memory
the darkness cannot hide
supposing they realign
decide a side
interdependent cross-eyed lullaby's
well I know I can relate
cause I've seen the souls that wait
compassion will defend
how you evaluate
no one can emulate a higher grace
well I guess I've been sold
but I'll never question my fate
well I can try and behave
spin the day
in the words spoken everyday
if the bravery
leads you wide awake
own the triumphant
disappear
it'll take your courage
in even years
instantly it'll ring in your ears
the glory of the spheres
opposing forces
like the hemisphere
rain down a garden of tears
oh my dear
the blossoms unfurl
as the weather grows clear
when you're near
but you steer me towards the sun war
who needs me needs me more
as if you're hearing that side play
you're gonna need me everyday
ring around the rosie
pocket full of posie
then the ashes
then the ashes
all come down
they all come down
one two
buckle my shoe
three four
shut the door
pick up some sticks
I've chosen your six
they chose a six

Glass of You

a blood red moon
in the night sky
swallows
your guide to
the righteous
twinkling starlight
that cross section view
of doom
centers my eyes
it's a soft focus
transparent view
the glass of you
believing too much
but I need you
in my life
reaching for
the symmetrical lines
of our eyes
reassign your choice
to the twilight
fade in and out
if the starlight
star bright
guides you anywhere
but from beneath

forlorn among
to break it in
just take it in
could've sworn
that you would never belong
but the universal spin
catches on and on
we believe
in that constant
used by everyone
is it a coincidence
that the elements
life feeds on
the perfection
encourages you
until you're gone
defend if you want to ascend
if you want a lasting hymn
to never end
and could we blend
an upward motion
where the river bends
where the road ends
off by one
somewhere
in the deep end
I've never been good
at long goodbyes
tell me you've got the patience
for the gracious sky
cause you've seen me
here there everywhere
I've tried
softly showing me
all of your eyes
calling me out on
all of my lies
receive repeat
up all night

Hallways of Mirrors
04:00

all I ever wanted were the dreams
to steer me clear from the dark of my life
branded scars reaching for the absent skylight
wouldn't get held up by the starlight
vacancies too long
I couldn't belong
all I ever wanted were my dreams
to steer me clear from being alone
seeing two toned
reaching for the unknown
reciprocal glances
feeding me answers
I wouldn't ever need to need to need to need to know
somewhere elsewhere
patiently aware
of the eyes that held your stare
believe it sewn shut
but you tear it up
but you've torn it up again
step by step
until the past is done
until the past is burnt again
survive then apprehend
blank stare
cold eyes
leave me there
lead you anywhere
as the light glares
it leaves me leads me there
but my dreams teach me the end
hallways of mirrors
bounce through portals
