lyrics

Leonis Stream

Can I regret something said now that God is my neighbour?
Things from before, things I often swore I’d quit,
are just a tombstone quip,
my past is permanent
A shadow-box display inaccurately made
from oversights and past misplays
Control and destroy, a secret ploy to fade out to pursue nothingness

What if I am nothing at all?
It’s only logical, one rain drop in a squall,
without a purpose in my fall
Spirit sweeper, mind reaper, human withdrawal
A fractional being, stripped of all feeling
balanced in scales atilt
A weighted criminal, no innocence or guilt

Who am I now?
Do I fit into past, present, future?
No one to say what was once my name,
I’m turned into a lesson worked for little boys and girls
A chalkboard exercise, a failure recognized
A resting ledger line, a treatment self-prescribed

Where do cardinal sins go?
Weary from limbo left waiting,
post for an anchor, a foothold for anger now waning
Collapse into ashes, the cinders of hereafter
I’m fading, scattered and tragic,
a homeless romantic who’s aching
for warmth in the winter, for a face in the mirror,
for asylum that welcomes like home
