splitting infinity
climb past the gates
Voices pressing me further through a world I can’t climb past the gates
Transpiring the ghost burning in my heart
Aching and damaged
Heartbeat…heartbreak…
Hearbeat….heartbreak…
Call through the tunnels decaying freedom ahead
Eyes stare through the violent tears
Walk towards the guidepost and they push past transpired dreams
When the sun damages every emotion aching to discard the future
Mistakes drowning through the turmoil
To climb the stairs towards heaven but they tear me apart
Watching the flames burn deeper and deeper
Skin pricked with visions silenced by the fear in my eyes
To walk the streets before they pull me through faces traced with rage
Drowning deeper and deeper
Conversations losing reality locked down through a voice
Breaking my pride apart
When everything feels wrong without you
To hear your voice shredding windows pushing me to escape
“to find you again”
The first time I look in the mirror
All I see is you
Counting down the days in my heart
To find you again
To find you again
Damaging myself when you appear
Damaging myself when you appear
Like all the ghosts walking down the street
All I see is you
All I see is you
Transparent and numbered by time
A witness to my guidepost
You are the one in my mind
20 years gone
It’s you
Climbing up the mountains
To reach the mirror
Pushing back self control
Losing it all for these mistakes
Walking down the streets to find you
To open up these doors to see a ghost
But I know it is really you
A true instinct
To send these letters through time
To find you again
When you appear I’ve lost it all
When you appear these colors pressing against my heart
Is it really you?
Shaking these voices
To hear you
Breaking down the windows to find your heart
Shaking down every door to see these visions
To wash away my tears
Pressing against the wall
Staring through time to catch up with memories
All these secrets I want to give you everything
Faster and faster to scrape away a value
Fast and faster to breakdown the light
Faster and faster to find you again
To find you again
To find you again
encrypted memories
faceless against the illuminated ocean mirrors
footprints burn away damaged voices lost behind broken bridges of our past like inscriptions witnessed under motorcade beyond cathedral skies
finding aging film lost behind secured rooms decoded like time-lapsed encrypted memories
every transparent wire bending by bursting matches striked by Parallax
prescriptions written by bursting wheels calculating divisional inspiration through unheard amplified lenses
jumping through trampolines generating blue and green visions forecasting a secret storm
emotions transpired through the rising tides like fingerprinted distances blinding my tomorrow

“Cathedral Bells”
I watch the ballerinas in the dark
every spoken movement counter-played
we can all find ourselves free again
inside and out mirrors study the emotional line
to run across imagination to re-process every critical point
we won’t ever stop running through daydreams
if we stop to questions why
if we stop to outline the detail on their back
will we ever understand which way we tick?
when you prescribe the distance I know the battleground too well
wake up another day to break this imagination across the silver screen
if you were next to me
If I couldn’t take a breath
I wouldn’t doubt redefinition
a vital clue going through your head
each slip, each belief to run through the sky
if I could speak
if I could speak to break the colors of silence
if I could speak like cathedral bells
if I could speak like the ghosts inside my head
to walk against the falling rain
if love didn’t fall apart inside my head
I see the shadows drop behind the heartache
reemphasize the social clues I am running so far behind
to cross out my window another day
tonight the church bells ring a different tune
to watch the cathedral walls one more day
to watch the smoke drop the critical line
to kneel before kingdom come every eye closed behind secrets reaching out for me
whisper past separation
tonight the church bells ring a different sound but only with you
watch a million spirits cross the skies
I watched you fall apart behind every second
whisper this world away
press the questions like damage
was I wrong to make things right?
all this time burning away
gauge the glimpse of this light
the pressure is too thick to control
break this silence apart
losing every color in the dark
you can’t break these balloons around my heart
to feel this emotion too deep
to feel this emotion like a chemical control
start all the days over in my mind
mistakes like dancers in the dark
if the light doesn’t shine today
let it burn me apart tomorrow
am I always wrong to choose different directions to get us apart?
one day they will rise to Heaven
like concealer to hide the black and blue away
like concealer to turn this world apart
shake this feeling to the ground
laugh again tomorrow
soldiers hear tomorrow
it hits them to the ground
in observation we pray for a new day of forgiveness
if yesterday doesn’t tell a story
someday we will march across the skies
everyday to define my faith
if time doesn’t answer me past the gates to prescribe the adoration
I can’t numb away the days lost
spin around this maze like a million pieces of doubt falling from my eyes
reflect the mirrors to break through the distance
a million voices gaining ground through the distance
to perfect the colors against the wall
I have seen the shadows spin through your heart
close their eyes to remember
television screens paint a true glimpse of tomorrow
pray for the days to absolve these sins locked in my heart
watch a million spirits cross the skies
witness men like magicians
look through the crowd
all the people lost on television screens
walk through this shadow
break through the cars
like the figures in the whispering room
counting the time away
when we walk through the streets
cut through this memory
time so translucent
break these paths cutting me away
kick through the wheels
behind microscopic eyes
detection at a point where it all matters
press my hands against your burning heart
all the time slipping away
crumble to madness
deception schemes can’t be found
when we lose imagination
I can’t find you here
all the worn out pieces
when you shoot through window panes
buildings hang so high
run through relapsing voices
images across my mind
don’t erase the polaroids
catch the traffic blur
men march past
flags caught against the distance
a place called home
determination never broken down
witness men like magicians
swim up & down the shores
can’t tell fact from illusion
forget my name in this town
