I prayed for language To sing out loud this joy confusion And bliss Now I’m back here And words don’t make any sense Why of all things I chose language I have no idea

Take me
I’m tired
Rolling this boulder uphill
Wasn’t the best use
Of my timeI’ve had enough
From now on pleaseTake me
Wherever you wantDeepest ocean trenches or
The heart of a black holeTake me
On an adventure
I can’t even imagine -
Give in
take this cup away from me
pleasethe medicine
knocked me down seasickagain
all i can do
is cry and laughand give in to this

Disappear
One day
I’d like to relax
Take a breakFrom this burning through
The atmosphere
At full speedBut I’m worried
I might just
Disappear***

This dance
Give me all
Of your rage
Hatred bewilderment
And griefI’m gonna
Swallow them whole
Laugh scream dance
Shout and cryThis dance
With madness
Is all you need
To break through freeLet’s open
Up the gates
And bathe in
The blinding light -
Betelgeuse
Don’t ask me
Why I tried to
Swallow the Ocean againNo human heart
Can contain
Koalas war and BetelgeusePieces of me
Cloud of debris
Around what’s left of our worldIt was the Ocean
That swallowed meGrinding all back
Into stardust -
Siren’s song
I’m not here to take care of you
I’m not here to protect youI’m here to lure you all the way
To the edge of a cliffI’m gonna tempt you with my siren’s song
Of what’s beyondUntil you have no more choice
But to jumpAnd find it out for yourself

Infinity
Infinity
Is eating me aliveI’d love to
Sing you a song
Of what it’s likeBut I’ve got work to do
-
Cosy sweaters
Hold me tight
As our walls and floor
Are crumbling into piecesBlack holes
Eating away at
All that we held dearGrasp the thread
From the fabric
Of spacetime unravelingWe’ll knit ourselves
Cosy sweaters to
Keep us warm in the dark -
Speechless
Spirits and shadows
On the ceiling
Are dancingThe night song
Runs through me
Inside outAll my bones
Dissolved in
Bitter medicineThe jungle drum
Beat me up tonight
Till speechlessShaken seasick
And bewildered
I reach for moreTo seek treasures
That lie
Beyond the edge -
I have no idea
When I was by myself
I prayed to be one with the ocean
To take a peek into the great mysteryWhen I was there
I prayed for language
To sing out loud this joy confusion and blissNow I’m back here
And words don’t make any senseWhy of all things I chose language
I have no idea
