chimera (o)

Windmills we follow as the guide

When wills escape for high tide

With chills obliging us to hide

The exhibit that we've always known

Such as that tedious, driving tone, but

In fairness, the answer we will find

To get there, the path is undefined

None dare to thaw away the drought

But fates are intertwined

Amongst the currents and the clouds

Off of the purpose it resounds

Between the surface and the ground

In the familiar where we drowned

Handed off with the light

It was standing to the side

Watching us all night

Hoping it could reignite

Hoping it could reignite

Fragments something locked away

Repulsive things I won't say

Suppressing the silence

That types in database grey

And when I look out west

I know I'm facing the right way

So hold my burnt retinas proudly

I know I'll never be the prey

And the words can't define

When the images don't reflect the design

So I glance away at my prize

Hoping it doesn't dance away into skies

Burning to ash and melting on my screen

Everything I wanted

The pristine dream

Dissolving in the scene

And a hideous voice

Recalling it for me

Of all the things I missed

Of all the things I missed

Of all the things I missed

Of all the things I missed

Empty fields

Whisper through the windows

To crash around us

Violate your skin-clothes

Setting out the grave rust

Look at what you gave us

Slipping slipping slipping away

Digging digging digging away

I need it I want it I want it I need it

Here's the shot now

Here's the shot now

Here's the shot now

Here's the shot now

Here's the shot now

Here's the shot now

Please

Please

Please wake up
