I felt winter drop across your eyes
when we turn the pages and try to forget
is it everything I try to feel at once?
I start to stare across faces lost against the window
shake their hands over and over to remember it all
never try to realize we pretend too far
never try to realize it is all a disguise
I am shopping through yesterday trying to remember my name
stand like a ghost for days
burning time like angels
look across a million reflections but I can only see you
playing chessmen to win it all
but I lose my game for you
I lose my game for you
what words can I say
every hallow reaction numbed by time
impossible dreams I can’t realize
lose my doubts from this crime scene
paint a million faces to color their days away
submerge all the thoughts holding me from falling
every discovery in the dark
turn to control this vice
fading against time every color I can’t feel
sickness slipping through my skin
every creation lost in my mind
build a million sandcastles to withstand my days
unlock a million puzzles to lose illusion one more time
turn against my true instinct
an Alter for every sin
a fortune controlled by filters in a cage
redesign the loss to win it all
reevaluate every impact gone wrong
hear a million voices through this room
every amplification to escape
overcompensate this hidden values
I saw you laughing in the dark
every substance I can’t feel
try to categorize every emotion and paint it through the wall
lock away every insecurity
a million keys spinning through your head
to break the lock against my heart
they are lost in the field to hunt their eyes
we look inside for doubts
witness every reaction to distinguish each crime
chase the scarecrow to pin his wings
Shattered Mind
