Luminessence

 

I'm spiraling out of control, so you illuminate a clean slate
You're lifting the weight that's diluting inspiration
I woke with the sun in my face, mountains by my side
The desert air pulling the breath from my lungs
I've been making my way through a barren landscape
Littered with remains of past lives and shadows of the scavengers

World passing by, leaving traces of shapes, blurring into memory
Dreaming of terrain that sustains, I wake up

I'm lying parallel with the landscape

There will always be a void to be filled, illuminate a clean slate
Keep lifting the weight that is diluting inspiration
There will always be a void with no permanent fix
Shifting of puzzle pieces to simulate a whole

World passing by, leaving traces of shapes, blurring into memory
Dreaming of terrain that sustains, I wake up to a world that's unfamiliar
We leave and then we go back like we never left home
We go back like we never left home

When will we wake the fuck up?
Parallel with the landscape, I lie awake
With diminishing desire to always seek escape
From a home where I feel sound and safe

World passing by, leaving traces of shapes, blurring into memory
Dreaming of terrain that sustains, I wake up, wake up
When will we all wake up?
Diminished desire to always seek escape to a world that's unfamiliar
We leave and then we go back like we never left home
We go back like we never left
