lyrics

Here running distance
I find my pleading
Under caught resistance
A reprise of my feelings
Tendril ever knotted
In the gut like a geode
Whether I am wanted
She skips my body home
Break it open
Haunt the center
Grandmother’s tropic
Source unhindered
Split the crevice
New crescendo
She is heaven
She is shadow

Shadow like a Shadow
I watch the moon late at night and realize I am full of life
Even when I am full of strife
//
I know she loved me
But now it's worthless
Because the distance keeps us unholy
I feel nothing...
yet
I want to give her my all...
But there is no resistance in my heart
Patriarchy falls apart when I give it to my art
When I try not explain what is going on in my head again
Again

I fear distance
Even though as I witness song
Relationships dissolve into nothing
Cause she's all I wanted my whole life
To wake up with her body next to mine
like coffee and sunshine...
Why has that slipped from grip?
What has she slipped from grip?

The distance is mirroring...

...I am not here
...I am trying to not
...not trying to
...trying not to here
