lyrics

Press pause
Rewind
Pause again
Rewind back to the start
Skin becoming too tight

I’ve been spiralling out lately
Venturing into the void
Losing control maybe
Control was never mine to hold
This world’s getting cold
And so are these hands, wounded
I’ve been hitting the walls until
My knuckles crack
So the walls started hitting me back
With thoughts written in black ink
Bottled up
Drink it up
And go through a coma
To suppress the trauma
Years and years of
Emotional abusing
Turning to substance using
A faulty mechanism
Transforming actions to patterns
Turning into 10 years of
Breathing in dust
Piling up
Inside the lungs
Constructing sandcastles
Whose bars are forged with veins
Where my feelings could burn into flames

Could you please turn on the
Light
Red light

Press pause
Rewind
Pause again
Rewind back to the start
Head becoming too heavy

The line seems so thin
Dividing what’s outside from what’s within
So fear starts creeping in between
The paranoid silent tones
Of my ego whispering
The world’s getting dark and distant
Herbert’s landscape
My soul wants to escape
This perception I embraced
Chasing my own past
Negated and untraced
While the joy of the ‘now and here’
Awaits with arms open wide
But I’m still petrified
By this mental suicide

So I chose to turn on the
Light
Red light

The key to understanding
Is found in the moment
Where acceptance and responsibility join
And this matrimony, a holy promise
Not to look but see
Not to listen but hear
Gives the human experience
A reason to love
A reason to rise
A reason to be
Just by being I am worthy
Just by being I am enough
But I’ll never understand my shadow
Until I accept that it is my absence of light
