Black Static

Drowning in a sea of static

Forbearance wearing thin

Night was already long long before this

The consistent patterns begin to blend once again

Ever expending and full of regret

All of my solace lies

In skin I've shed and left behind

I've been losing sleep

Searching a meaning in anything

I have thought I'd learned to separate

Myself from the surrealistic void

But now I see it's engulfing me

And I've no rope to grab ahold

Something so frail and fragile

Was certain to never float at all

Inevitability in this static sea

We all dissolve

Shifting along with the flow

Existing simply to say so

I've been losing sleep

Searching a meaning in anything

All of my solace lies

In skin I've shed and left behind

I've been losing sleep

Searching a meaning

Sweating swirling my descent

I bend and contort

Incredible black hole

Torn into the fabric of the earth

Distorting not only thought

Compromising vision

Great delusional mind

In control of everlasting time

And as the light

From the sun washes over me

I will never find relief

I've held the world in my hands

I couldn't keep it on my own

I've held the world in my hands

I couldn't keep it all alone
