Always sounds grand in the moment An expression of hope To conquer every unknown valley and slope Little do we know that always means in all ways
Awaken my soul I hear your call But I understand nothing Detached from The Otherworld A forgotten past Disconnected
Feeling no self worth A shadow of myself What have I become A beacon of pain A stained canvas for your projections A dark reflection
The rains from the heavens, do not discriminate They cleanse and sanctify all the same and offer a pause to both ruminate and celebrate

Before you try to drive the thing, be a passenger. 🚉 Sit with your forehead on the cool glass, let other people’s sentences
