Down there
Do you know where you are? No
I was talking to
The other day and he told me that
The reason I guess so
I was angry
It was so strong
The flies in the dark with their ways of shedding some light now I've lost all my day
I think they are very lucky with internal parts like illumined sun rays
It's so easy to get lost in the mixture
When forces strike hard you wear your layers or you'll shiver
I didn't think you were struggling so long
With all of the wild things that we took so young
How it must have wrapped you up and left you hanging upside down
But I was too busy getting lost in the big sound, the big sound
Now I'd trade in all I've saved
To fly to those nights and ask how are you mother
If we could have just engaged
I'd have enhanced my weakness in confronting others
But the words are all jumbled and faded
My heart is a nurse but my tongue's in the blender
Now it's become something creative
I know it's not much but just let it right into your gut
And hold me I've been sad for days
The light does change its gifts every hours devoured
And same things haunt me
What's haunting you?
Lately I've been seeing beings
They look like they float at the back of my head room
I don't find it strange when I'm talking to you
Lion in your dreams the lion is good for your dreams accept the lion
The lion would probably try and come and embrace you too
And when I get fucked up I do the best to make myself not fucked up again
And my heart and my lungs too
Why can't I do the same for everyone I love too
How about it'll be you and me and the leader of the ghosts
Lately I've been seeing beings
They look like they float at the back of my head room
I don't find it strange when I'm talking to you
Lion in your dreams the lion is good for your dreams accept the lion
The lion would probably try and come and embrace you too
