Discord
One foot in the grave.
Other one swings over it.
Different mindsets.
Other one swings over it.
Different mindsets.

The Watcher
The watcher
who is in the shadows
who encompasses the shadows
forgetting all that was told.
The watcher.
who is in the shadows
who encompasses the shadows
forgetting all that was told.
The watcher.

The More Interested
The more interested I am in it,
The more uninterested I become.
But the more I indulge in it,
The more it becomes part of me,
And is thus my identity.
The more uninterested I become.
But the more I indulge in it,
The more it becomes part of me,
And is thus my identity.

Psychotic prism break
Standing in the light
he slowly peeled
the colors away
unworthy
of their admiration
until he was left alone
in the darkness
he slowly peeled
the colors away
unworthy
of their admiration
until he was left alone
in the darkness

There is nobody else
Just us
Together
Let’s forget
Everything
Face the lens
Don’t get confused
Now it’s time to fly
In a secret sky

Not Us
One hundred
One hunnit
One honey
Is it all it takes
to simply use
and dig the groove
to be #100
