I'm not lying when I'm saying that I'm lying.

'Black Magic' 2020

Give me that medicine, that medicine

That makes my head so clear

My mind so blank

My thoughts surreal

[miss-icarus]

And just like that I'm laying here. My mind blank and slow but racing and chaotic at the same time. Free to go and still tied down. Insides numb and yet on fire.

[miss-icarus]

You are watching the stars but I only have eyes for you for you are the most precious thing in the galaxy.

Blind

She was sitting at her desk in the middle of the night, staring out of her window into the grant nothing. It was so dark, so empty but yet so filled with light. She was here but yet so far away. She was at nowhere, a place unknown to you, unknown to me even but sacred to her. What wonders does she might see? Was her mind wandering through the forest? Or was it washed away by the ocean? Or maybe burned by the light of a foreign sun? Nobody knows. Because nobody sees the things that she sees. But we might be able to catch a glimpse from that place through the reflection in her eyes. And oh my, must that place be wonderful. Whatever it looks like, it must be a happier place... But nobody knows. Because all we know is here. All that we see is here. So no matter how long she is looking longingly into the night sky, nobody will be able to give her that place. Because we know nothing. Because we don't know nowhere. Because all we see is the reflection of stars millions of miles away in her eyes. Because we are blind.

Tell me, lover, do you feel it too?

This feeling of life being drained out of us as it ascends to the stars? Into the skies and the neverending dark?

Tell me, lover, have you ever felt this alive?

Get rid of your heart, Get rid of your mind, Get rid of everything And leave it behind
