lyrics

Twelve years gone by, blurred by light
A life synthesized by staring at screens
Incandescent; rid from 20/20
Vision; pictorial elision
Don't move again, don't move again
Stand still

Can’t see what they see
Unknown tapestries
All within these frames
Strange, yet so acclaimed
Silhouettes dance with
Marionettes, stringless
Ocular bliss
(Petrified)
Cryptic from the electric
Panic within
Confronted, invalid and dismayed

Light on my feet, but dragging
My heart is my smoking gun
End verity
Ce n’est pas la vie

Grip your faith and you may see now
It only means of letting go
Each one their own apostle
Corruption leads to vertigo
The shepherd counts their sheep circling
Ingenuous and obedient
But the real shepherd, nowhere to be found
The one who thought, now giving in

Pigment what looks blank
Euphoric playback
Ease my mind for now
Shut eyes see somehow
Hopeful to concede
A sad anomaly
Backtrack to find
(Present day)
Silhouettes dance with
Marionettes, stringless
The seasons change in just a blink of an eye

Crawling slowly
Don’t you know my limits, for I can’t trust a cynic
Out of me
Impossible, this carnival; a colorful fulfillment
Dim-lit chambers repressed
Suppress grief foreseen
Don't move again

Can’t see what they see
Unknown tapestries
All within these frames
Strange, yet so acclaimed
Hopeful to concede
A sad anomaly
A show for, a show for
An audience of one
