Through Flesh-colored Glasses (It's only just begun)

Folder: 
Possible Songs

It's happening again

This distorting and contorting 

As the mirror taunts with it's own 

seemingly conscious perspective

Floating in a glass sea

Devoid of space and reason

 

Can you hear me?  Can you feel me?

I want this clawing

I want this screaming

I want to wake you up

 

Watching bones break and bend

A ghost, past or present

The only future is beyond this place

When everything repeats

 

Circles and cycles

And cycles and circles

Rotating wheels on spiderweb spindles

Spins unconscious webs of neural-connections

While blinding the eyes from construct erections

 

Can you hear me?  Can you feel me?

I want this clawing

I want this screaming

I want to wake you up

 

Up through the ceiling 

The attic overflows with rotting fruit

Half eaten skeletons, dancing in time to the flute

Past the chained beasts and up through the roof

Past the chained beasts and up through the roof

Past the chained beasts and up through the roof

 

Past the chained beasts and up through the roof…

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This was originally targeted to be part of a concept album about a friend of mine who overdosed on pain pills.  While that still rings true for this particular set of lyrics, the scope of the project as a whole has broadened.

Lyricification

Catchy tune and neat poetics - this works if the orchestration is neat too. Could not stop reading this song's words. Encore ~Lady A~
