Dead End

Switch the time out and let your body drop

You are nothing anymore

And everything exists for you

Always through panic can time flow

From pulsing hands and heavy hearts

Disheartened by the earth’s illusions.

Everything bends and twists and shouts and crumbles

And in the aftermath

Your wings spread

And with outstretched arms

You leap into the nothingness

Because everything has become tiresome

You reach into the void

To take on its mystery.

"Always through panic can time flow
From pulsing hands and heavy hearts
Disheartened by the earth’s illusions.
Everything bends and twists and shouts and crumbles
And in the aftermath
Your wings spread
And with outstretched arms
You leap into the nothingness"
