lyrics

Bison horns, desert winds, in four windswept directions. Each leads a different way to a new reality. First one step, there are two of them and then to a third, just a few steps embarked, there’s no turning back now. I’ll never know the truth unless you ask it of me, my breath it escapes in a cloud I cannot see. I’ll never know the truth, I’m not so sure if I need to, it knocked forsaken wind right out of me.

Walking in introspection a labyrinth to a cool bench, thoughts stray and I see petunias and exotic flowers. Think waywardly worldly and learnédly and that burnéd me I did not see the truth that I did seek, I’ll never know the truth unless you ask it of me, the wall it gives way to a corridor no creature’s ever seen. I’ll never know the truth, I’m not so sure if I need to, there aren’t even any spidery webs on the ceiling over me.

Food ran out and I know that rescue it will not come, I let myself get reborn nonetheless. I hope to wipe my memories of your presence because you were the first one I asked for when I awoke, and then I thought of your sandy shoes and your windswept hair out in the sand somewhere it could be anywhere. I write poems and I smell flowers, I stand up to powers, we’re not much different anymore are we? I’ll never know the truth unless you ask it of me but how stubborn as an ox in repose was me, the silence in your presence. I’ll never know the truth, not so sure if I need to, lamp-lit through the night and pushed on into day, no other way but the ley lines in a maze.
