Jan 2022
In the country of the blind,
The one eyed men are kings
So condemn what you don't understand
(Consume)

It's more alluring to feed the machine
(Conform)
Is your life the masterpiece
You dreamt of painting?

From out of the depths,
Comes Father Time
To devour your wishful thinking
(OBEY)
It's all I can do to preserve a calm mind
(OR TRY)
But I'd rather play follow the leader
(COMPLY)
I'm just a ghost in this portrait you left hanging
(GOODBYE)
Erase the past now, my life's not worth saving

I'M PLAGUED
All my cognitive processes haunt me;
In my inability to bring
Luminescence
To the infinite shadows, swirling

Don't you know by now?
Your essence of life
Manifests in the
Vibrancy of your
Frequencies you see
The philosophy,
Structures of a
Love > Fear dichotomy

Materialize my manic visions;
For I have listened
As the chasms between
The Heavens & Earth
Both wax and wane,
Simultaneously ~

Picture the days
We traded our
Whole lives away
When did we fall from grace to see
Our paradise,
Lost in the flames?

All my cognitive processes haunt me;
In my inability to bring
Luminescence
to the infinite shadows, swirling

Don't you know by now?
Your essence of life
Manifests in the
Vibrancy of your
Frequencies you see
The philosophy
Structures of a
Love > Fear dichotomy
