I'm on the other side of myself looking through the glass
that divides my heart from my mind,
and the sky passes over in time lapse fashion.

The stars rotate as they should,
but I'm standing still even now,
despite the chaos around me.

Motion is endless and time is a menace,
or an angel for some.

My hopes rise and fall like empires through ages
while my sight falls and rests on the inevitable

The division is clear
The result is predicted
Just a matter of time
Just a short while still

So vivid is this image of futures I create
but my delusions no longer plague me in this physical state

Escape...

into the transition

beyond evolution

coasting past civilizations we never imagined

and the void will find you

to reclaim the emptiness that's thriving inside you

It's bright
but it's cold
and the wind makes it even more so
and the clouds
and the shadows
that they cast upon the ground
are flowing
streaming on their paths
and the hardest part is knowing
you're alone
and so am I
Sometimes you feel like home,
so don't ever
don't you ever cry
on my behalf until I've passed

Obtain permanence
as ages subside
scaling the climate
between summer and ice
the end is approaching
but just from the west
we tried to avoid it
we gave it our best

Light seeps in and void seeks its rest
into the solace of full emptiness
Finality peaks over the highest hopes
and falls down the dark side of slopes

Awaken to a dream world built to seal you in
feel the atoms, digitized, flickering around you
feel the virus spreading rapid, overwhelming static
This dream is brilliant, ever still, lucidly evolving
into unknown tangents of gravel paths
or streets fresh-paved by alchemy
Is the sun above, or the stars below?
Directionless we wait
for creation to reveal itself
we wait until that day

Tormenting distance always a shadow
this separated feeling from reality and you
Tonight I put my life on repeat for the millionth time
and sit here dreaming without ever closing my eyes

In these visions, I see red burning sunsets
that never descend below horizon's edge
I see clusters of stars raining galaxy hail
vast nebula clouds, our oceans to sail

When convenience meets its limits
and cell phones become robots
and alternate realities
are simply sources of entertainment

Take away the lightning
take away the lighting
digital worlds will crumble
inside dying currents

back to reality
back to the stone ages
the dawn of the human race
animals, and dust, our nature

Let's see how civilized we'll be
