it's everywhere i'm looking, the only thing i see
the walls of love collapsing and falling down on me
i cannot take the pressure, it's coming down on me
just like water, it's coming down on me
i know i'm always calling and you can't count on me
nothing more to offer, nothing more in me
i took it all for granted, you took it all from me
just like we wanted, the way it had to be
my body's just a vessel and you can drift in me
get lost in all the madness, end up finding me
not what you expected, not that i was me
just like water, you drowned inside of me

the sun today hangs low
afraid to get too close
knowing the danger he will impose
destroying what he only wants to hold
makes him want to run
to the sky above
but there's nowhere left to go
she's down below
a flower in a sea
she's reaching up to be
warm inside his arms
he can't control the flames
disparate they remain

you move me

in the darkness to you.
outside, so fragile, like paper
you show yourself to me
one secret at a time
until they all die
and then you hide
in your perfect symmetry
floating like a mystery
deep in the darkest
place inside of me.
a white, incandescent
beautiful sight.
a radiating light.
admiring the simplicity i see.
a picture reveals
the danger underneath.
you cannot survive.
my eyes too frail a sheath.
a breath dissolving you like teeth.
in time you will shed this duplicity
and reveal yourself to me.
reveal yourself to me.
time will underestimate me
but i will die for this
unearthly awakening
