Far away
Dripping further away
Darting further away
Like a dream
Slipping through the cracks in my mind
A night sky melting in the daylight
Dripping down into the eyes of dreamers
Glazing over their eyes
Changing their view on the world
As a lens of truth
Never really fading
Until the screams of the blind
Implant in their mind
They’ll be immune themselves
And become blind as well

Under the cold moon, I march to my peace. So cluttered is the bricks aligning my life, so deafening the sounds of life, so pungent the small of the stale air surrounding me. As I walk forward into the moon, I leave it all behind.
Looming over me, dark and twisting against the sky, my elder gazes down at me with an eyeless look. My hands grasp upon her textured abrasive flesh. Knots seeming made into her to help pull me into her embrace. I slip, my tender soft skin gouging against her rough rippling skin. Despite the burning against my palms and knees, eventually I pull myself up into just two of her stiff arms. I sit still, steady, but I never feel truly supported. The comfort of familiar chaos far below my feet tingles and aches. I long for familiarity but the pain and fear burns all around me. Swallowing me whole till I feel that I am suffocating until I am a ghost of my former self, moving without thought in my mind, into the sharp cold air. Anything. Anything at all to feel something other than the burning.
I look into the frozen moon as my elder holding on to me, slowly she closes around me.

Oh Cuckoo Baby, Oh Cuckoo Baby
Do you know where you came from?
Do you realize who raises you?
Oh Cuckoo Baby, Oh Cuckoo Baby
Do you know how much it hurts to love you?
It's not your fault
I know it's not your fault
Do you know it's not your fault?
Oh Cuckoo Baby, Oh Cuckoo Baby
You scream, you scream
You tear apart the nest
No one understands you
And Neither do you
Oh Cuckoo Baby, Oh Cuckoo Baby
What will your future be like?
I wish the best for you
Even when you hurt me
Oh Cuckoo Baby, Oh Cuckoo Baby
I love you

Rain falls, I cry
Finally I match the sky
I felt so out of place for so long
The dripping makes a calming song
Making me feel at home
When I'm far from people I never feel alone
Far away I run from fear
However I can’t help but shed a tear
The future is never something I could know
I shiver, the rain turns to snow

A lion and a tiger live in my house
I hate their roars
My voice is as silent as a rabbit
As they slash slash slash
Our home gets trash trash trashed
Bash Bash Bash
I warn beware
Lion Paws through walls
What I’d give to be a bear
After the battles the tiger is calm
While she still rattles
Her paws are soft and welcoming
The lion sits ticking like a time bomb
Pride to great
To admit to any mistake
When the lion roars all run
Except the tiger
She stands and defends us
We wish though she didn't fight fire with fire
Her roar is just as fierce
Even my wails and screams can't pierce through their roaring
Once I had seen
That even the tiger could scream
The lion had scared her into a corner
She told him to leave but still he'd scorn her
The tiger tears spilled
And for once I couldn't take it
My anger filled
And from then on I became a bear
Without a tear I endured the roars of the lion
Without a tear I stood tall
And when the lion closed in
I didn't let him know he scared me
Now the lion stays in his cave
And with his pride
He acts like he has done nothing
Nothing at all
