On the edge of grass in summer
I had a dream everything turned out well
And even when I'm not sure, I can still believe
Eternal oceans carry me
Through clouded mirrors sorrow prevails
I look at the sky and pray for hope
And I want nothing more than to trust you
Careful soul slumbering in rain
Loss in hearts made me numb, but this optimism
Tastes sweet like honey drizzled on my tongue
Whispers flickering and I run to you
Never wanting to let you go, to let you go
Two years of a pandemic slipped by like a pill
A drink I spilled, carelessly falling in and out
A lover bleeding at midnight, I feel the eclipse when it's divine
The sands escaping my hands into picturesque times
Our flame dancing in a spontaneous burst of emotions
Raising a glass to old friends
That holographic subculture where we lost ourselves
On the road to freedom, the sweat on my forehead
Lingers like undeniable lust, sentimental tears like rivers
A body overflowing with hopes and dreams
A body filled with tempting nights of pleasure
Augmented in this tension, I can't resist it
The song in my head is comfortably numb
A table I turned, synthesized leech, unhooked addict
Surge of dopamine in a past revisited
Excited by the prospect, virtual end nearing
Tabula rasa, tabula prayer
Turn the page and look at the hawthorn
Prisoner in a cave, can't turn your head
In Plato's cave, heads with no knowledge
I am new again, new moon, new sun
I can see the world and all its light, all its glory
It's obvious I'm hanging by a thread, drowning society
I am new again, new again.
