Lyrics

I see the door

I perceive an opportunity or exit

But there's something in the way and I can't get out

Obstacles hinder my escape, creating a sense of entrapment

I'm in a room

I find myself in a space

But I don't know how I got here or what I'm allowed

Uncertainty surrounds how I arrived here and what actions are permissible


So come inside

Invite me into your world

Pick a fight

Initiate a conflict or challenge

Ruffle my feathers

Disturb my calm, provoke me

I'll be waiting here

I'll be here, enduring

Patiently

With patience

Wondering whether

Contemplating whether

Hope is a lie

Hope might be deceptive


Hold me down 'til I can't understand who I am

Constrain me until self-understanding is lost

Pull me out of this hole

Rescue me from this despair

Hold me down 'til your body spills into my soul

Hold me down until our beings merge deeply


The sun is out

The sun is shining

And I need it like I need a hole in my head

I crave sunlight, despite not needing it

My voice is shot

My vocal expression is exhausted

But I can't remember a single word that I said

Forgetfulness shrouds my spoken words


So count me in

Include me

Take me on

Challenge or confront me

Kill all my memory

Erase my memories

I can't believe

I find it hard to believe

Can't go on

Unable to continue

Never be care-free

Never experience carefreeness

If hope is a lie

If hope proves deceptive


Hold me down 'til I can't understand who I am

Restrict my understanding of self

Pull me out of this hole

Rescue me from this pit of despair

Hold me down 'til your body spills into my soul

Hold me down until our essences blend


Then leave me be

Then allow me solitude

Alone to dream

To dream alone

Another world

Another world beckons

Is calling me
