lyrics

I will be back down soon.

I am every piece of nothing
Boiling to the surface
In a pot of water,
Steam straying off into to another
Bygone thought of changing states.
I will be back down soon.

You are very time piece,
A found body of purchase,
Precious solid ground,
Prayers hauled upon your shoulders.
Building constants absolutely,
I lay them at your feet.

Where I hide is where you shine,
And my weakness pulls your strength out,
As you rise
In my decline.
And I'm dreading
That moment
When we pause.

Where I slide is where you stand,
And my muscles strain to keep up,
As you raise
A tired frame.
And I'm treading
Implausibilities.

We are
Unwinding normal
Stretching boundaries
To their fraying edges,
Strings of bindings dancing wildly,
Unglued corners peeling free,
Refusing to be mended.

I am hoarding thoughts of resting,
Passing on the years.
Oh quiet resolution.
Sing me quickly into dreaming,
Safely held,
Breathing divided.

I will be back down soon.
