my mind seems painted in blue when no one is around. i feel like standing in the queue like i‘m in deep-sea water – drowned – waiting to finally get crowned. but the weights of ink blue thoughts tear me down, and i‘m desperate for what‘s slipping through my hands – a silver crown. suddenly the thoughts of light at the surface lift me up. something familiar approaches me with the impression of me winning that cup. … against own mind that seems to control me so randomly i could scream – scream for clarity but for eternity.

the water level of a lonely lake
my mind seems painted in blue when no one is around. i feel like standing in the queue like i‘m in deep-sea water – drowned – waiting to finally get crowned. but the weights of ink blue thoughts tear me down, and i‘m desperate for what‘s slipping through my hands – a silver crown. suddenly the thoughts of light at the surface lift me up. something familiar approaches me with the impression of me winning that cup. … against own mind that seems to control me so randomly i could scream – scream for clarity but for eternity.
