JUST LIKE ALWAYS

You carried my heart
in the night
to bury the wave in the tide
Oh how the birds
forget to sing
they know of the sadness in me?
I will leave you there again
Deep within the mind of images

~I swear this isn't real
the past isn't dead, It's alive,
& it's really happening
Filling me with dread

~Sacred grove, secret treasure buried Deep in the snow,
It's breaking my heart as
I Walk the thousand mile road
A trail ablaze to the Aventine~

No gods, no tears
Nor laws of space time
Can undo what is happening
When I close my eyes~
Falling down From
high hopes to the ground
There's no way out

~Wind heavy on the ground
Like a cloak before the moon
I guess I've never known
Someone like you

~Now I'm with the stars
& the moon
I woke up sleepwalking
in the night In the same place
To save me from my eyes

~
The darkened weather arches, Redeeming an old debt
of the sun
To take a drink from my well
Like water I will run.

~I took some time to
exile from the light
To unfold this creature
They call a mind

~Darkened weather arches,
Hovering over you
To hold you,
to know you,
to let you go.

~And for a brief moment
We could stop the time
But with the stars and moon
I keep waking up in the night

~Rend a black drop from my heartWith the weight of last daysMy end of time has just begunI hear it call my nameOh the ghost of darknessdances so sweet and slow~With my heart and soulThere's nothing I can doSummer's blowing coldAnd now it's time to go~I wanna buy you roses'Cause the words are dead,I Follow in blindnessOn the arrows head'Cause all words are deadAnd you know it~This grip that I holdSo tight and closeAround my throat withThe weight of my life~Nature will get her wayThough I've taken her for a foolI'm walking on this frozen lakeDidn't know you wouldDeny the dead,Leaving them in silenceIn their earthen homeOh so numb~dead like dustOh, don't cry for mewhen I die~These bare bonesare remade of glassSee-through to the marrowwhen they passSee through the keyhole,fate is castDeep in the mirror smiling back~In shapes like these,they run softlyShadows grow in my minds eyeOh why does thissorrow grow in my eyes?And no straining of the stringCan reverse what has begun~Some of us let goand some hold onThere is no mistakeIf I could wash all ill will awayCan it reverse this~All I have or should wantto be but never couldIt's coming at me so fast,right through my heartTo spoil my soul with desire~Tell me about real loveAll my eyes can see is the mayaBorn out of mental imageryit's coming, it's coming at my heartTo scorch my soul with fusion plasma~I see you in my eyesI am painting the sky for youAngel green and blue~Who are you to haunt my mindI'm gonna leave this pain behindIt's coming at me again,I know, I see,I wanna just be freeI know, I crave,it's running through my veinsTo spoil my soul with fire~Here I lay hereStill and breathlessJust like alwaysStill I want moreThe mirrors sidewaysWho cares what's behindJust like it was alwaysI'm still your passenger©infj-loki
