See you in still

I'm sitting down
So I guess now is a good time
Tell me
Where were you?
I think I know
I want to hear from you
These voices lie 
These are your voices
Worse than trying
Worse than silence
Few people won't run
The stillness cuts
It's too much
I guess that's where I'm going
I'll see you in still

Waiting for something

I've seen others in that place
But now I feel myself there
It's like I'm high
And I want to go down
It's an anxious waiting feeling
I sense something building
But I don't want to trip
I don't want to dissolve
I want the door that enters into
The place where dreams are made
I know it's not a pretty place
But I want in this room
I want to disappear in this room
I want to hide there
I'm too vulnerable out here
I'm waiting and am holding on
That's part of the thing
You can't go anywhere if you don't let go
I guess I'm a little scared
That I'll vanish

Not by choice

I can't sleep
I know this feeling
There's a storm coming
My insides are twisting
I say I want peace
Am I a liar?
I want to win
But the victory is transparent 
What am I?
This dream
It's like I keep waking up
I like sleep
But it scares me
I've seen god
He wasn't there 
The hills are gone
It's a desert
The man is a ghost 
I'm not here
Not usually 
The separation kills me
I'm choking
My neck 
I feel it there
I'm weak with strength
I want you
The beauty of the song
It haunts me
My love terrifies me
My heart is smashed
And glued
I won't leave
Not on my own accord

Embark

One more round 
A quiet sound
An unseen fog
An underdog
I am him
And we are them
The sunken gem
Amongst the men
Lend and send
My mind will bend
Until it's there
From nowhere
Feel the air
Sit and stare
Find the still
That fits the bill
I'm all and all
The one to fall
My old is gold
And does unfold
Unto the front
Of my hunt 
My eye to you
Looking through
I steal the dark
Embark

Average

I'm average
Nothing great
Run of the mill
I'm crazy in a way
Trying to pass
For above average
Fuck it all
I represent
I'm average
All the average fucks out there
I am you

Pay attention

Trouble is a weird thing
It just shows it's head
I swear I'm doing all the right things
It was the fight
But it's the crazy normality
It's something that doesn't feel right
It's one of those things that I'm sensing
Kicking doesn't help
Sometimes I'm not sure cutting works
Look at it
I'm falling asleep

It's mine

I don't care if it was phantom
The feel was right
It still feels good
I saw the worst last night
The bad delivered with a smile
I'm still here
The river has not dried
I'm alive 
The circle
This is my own
I've always wanted it
It's something that I can hold
I can work with the circle

River

I wrote songs
Something new
From the sphere
The warmth
I'm returning 
But there's a strange feeling
In my neck
I'm choking
Just the feeling
I used to feel this as a child
I'm clearing the way
But as I do this comes to me
It's funny now
It doesn't bother me
I used to freeze
To shake
To squirm
But now I'm just present
Without judgement 
I don't want to be bad
I'm attracted to the warm
The circle
In my body
Where am I in my body?
Do you know?
The music is returning
It's also strange
It's a river
That's what I heard
I think I'm there

Hotel dream

I was running
I was waiting
I was angry
I was fast
I was climbing 
Exploring 
In the end I was hiding
In the dark
The police were chasing my person
I was in the shadows
Someone was approaching me
I didn't know if he was an enemy or a friend
When he got close I woke
Before that there were French fries
Late fries 
I was in socks
The floor was wet
Before that there was an elevator

Hotel dream

I didn't know if he was an enemy or a friend

Late fries

Probably

No one said that building an empire was going to be easy
Everyone wants to bring down the king
Even if no one knows he's the king
The voices in his head are calling for his head
Why do the voices want an outcome that will lead to their demise?
The voices in my head are like republicans who vote against their own interest
Do the voices in my head feel there is a better situation?
Who are they?
Why so many voices?
It's getting loud in here
I can't hear with all the screaming
Die
And they tell me the same
It's war
I want death
They want death
And no one wins
What does a guy have to do to acheive victory around here?
Surrender? 
Probably
What does a guy have to do to get answers around here?
Stop asking questions?
Probably

Glass of chaos

I'm so close all the time
It's constantly as if it could go both ways
Dark or light
Stress or free
It's jail or flight
Seems to be running
But more like a dream
I almost escape my head sometimes
I feel high
Then I'm pulled back in
But I remember
I'm building
I guess I'll continue 
I'm trying to enjoy myself
I laugh more
I cried
Or at least I felt close
It's getting better
But it's like I'm on the other side of a glass wall
Beyond the glass is a nightmare
My side of the glass is like a Carwash 
I see the car going through
I'm inside but I'm touching the glass of chaos

You first

Waiting waiting waiting for nothing
Expecting expecting expecting
You're not fucking pregnant!
Hoping and dreaming
It fades
You're left behind
Memories are bullshit
They're pretend
They're nothing
Except the death
This brings the memories of regret
Memories are everything 
But they're not for the weak in spirit
Don't be a coward
We have too many
We're all scared already
Be scared
You can't help that
Walk straight into the thought
Walk straight into the worst case
I've been there
It all eventually evaporates
It's not real
Nothing is
Unless you say it is

Some type of a circle

I'm beyond lost now
I could say it's dark but it's more than that
I have quiet periods
I see colors
I'm high
But sometimes I'm in too much pain
It's all there
As ugly as I can be
I am beautiful
I hate this
But this is life
I can't seem to embrace this truth
But unfortunately truth eventually embraces us all
I didn't think I could still stand
But my legs work
Today I got up and walked
I'm not here but I am somewhere
It's not the end
I'm back again
It's some type of a circle

Closing moss

Restless jabs into dark unknown 
They don't pay well
Not for years if any
Words that penetrate are outlawed
Or ignored
The interest in things unlawful 
The pain removal for the masses
You chose this hell
But you've forgotten 
The forgetting is double bladed
Mercy
Words of redemption 
Don't beleive it
No one leaves
The end takes a lifetime 
And that lifetime leaves scars
It all disintegrates into the first

It's that way for me

Sleep sinking angst
Midnight crumbles
Bursting inner pockets
And hope dried talk
It's effective 
It keeps me awake
I float good for a weighted man
Tired dry landscape
Heated sand
And waves of gas in the air
The rush includes novelty
But it's the known that kills
It's always familiar
At least that's how it's been for me

It's expected

Bury me with your intentions
In a stone mausoleum
Your dreams have the weight

Your added extensions
Of afterthought 
Arrive never too late

Not like your touch
Your beautiful smile
Delivers the cameras invitation

A small token 
Of something stolen
To cement our relation

I sleep in the other
Forever and all
It's now just the blur

I have this right now
In my calm 
You make me sure


2:23am

Breaking the barrier to self
Looking without eyes
Becoming nothing else
Truth bending the lies

Freedom no longer feels
This time it's long
My monologue steals
What's called wrong

But this is a path
It's no different
It's nothing
It's always there
See it
But don't look
Seek
But don't try
Internal check ins.

No net

I forgot to give myself a net and I think I'm falling. Whoops.

Guitar resentments are flooring me like a truck off a bridge. I'm late to the party.

I'm hearing voices but I'm not a part of any conversation that isn't in my head. Is that good? I heard the comic has to get locked up inside his head.

Ok I'm here. What now?

The world erupts

Truth has consequences
Fear brings a safety
But it's not truth
Truth brings a danger
The whole world erupts with truth
Like a shattered glass window
The fractions will never be the same
I'm not that guy
The guy inside me is changing
I'm somehow different
What I'm coming to realize is it's not me
I'm not me
It was a dream
Am I an intruder?
This waking moment has sent me into an unrest
I'm unsure
Nothing from before is true
I just hold on to these stories
But they're not real
There is really nothing to hold on to
This pain in my back stops the movement
Movement is my only grace
My movement through space has taken a turn
The motion has ceased
This is also a dream
It doesn't stop and that's what will erupt your world
