lyrics

In site
In spite
Of your tending
My spasms have increased

Times of down
Times of on
Overheating
Overcooling
When you stand beside me
I peak

The illusion of humility drops like rain
I see behind your curtain
The heart you show
You know is fixed on no reality
But it looks good
Where you’ve framed and hanged it over me

Shaking too much to move
From this spot
Yet I am
Further away than you think
And still closer than you want
I rise up all of my offerings
These bonds shouldn’t be
Only saving notes for sage
It’s time for me to breathe

Destruction
Will shake off the build up
The structure if sound will remain
Its cleaning
It’s bleeding
It’s unearthing our shame

These sticky sweet drops of you
Are rolling down my face
Swelling behind my eyes, as I’m drifting from your interface

Mmm
Your dimming light
Mmm
Mine must hold brighter
Pockets diminished are faster to spread
I found your old methods lacking
And I need to be running ahead

Shaking too much to move
From this spot
Yet I am
Further away than you think
And still closer than you want
I rise up all of my offerings
These bonds shouldn’t be
Only saving notes for sage
It’s time for me to breathe

Advantages discarded
To call out your name
Sustenance at last allied
Muscle memory retrained

Ritual lines
Returned with sense applied
I draw the apparitions
Cast the vision wide

Illuminating is
So controversial
I should not be undone by
Your damage come full circle

Shaking too much to move
From this spot
Yet I am
Further away than you think
And still closer than you want
I rise up all of my offerings
These bonds shouldn’t be
Only saving notes for sage
It’s time for me to breathe
