Hello again, familiar morning routine
Time's ebbing away, but I feel no rush today
No urge, no hurry, just the rhythm of the rain
Sliding by, not here...
I'm not nearly, nearly there
So it's back to black again in the early morning hours
How I'd love to run away from the dogma that devours me
So what's different about this morning? The setting's the same as everyday
Who can tell what rearranged the rain
To wash my fears away?
There is so much more to living, so much more of the divine to gain
For this silent colony bathing in the morning rain
So it's back to black again in the early morning hours
How I'd love to run away from the dogma that devours me
So it's back to black again but I'm thinking of the escaping from the dull
Monotomy and the Sundays that are breaking me... I break me
The stage is set for saints to fall and cleared for cowards to surprise
It took me time to realise the life I lived and left behind
Is better off a memory
Let's see what dreams I find
*State of Mind*
Many went to the shimmering land of make-believe
And ventured the farthest corners of the mindscape
Merely testing the ice, I never went too far from the safe and solid ground
Afraid of the darkness I might find
(underneath)
Exploring the mind to escape from your daily lives,
Where you become the head of a state in a state of mind
All links to reality fading
Pandora's box lies waiting
Instead of the roof of the world it becomes a nightmare
We expect perpetual motion, a chain effects
The newfound land out to be a grain of sand
(ever volatile)
Searching the edge of consciousness for insights in the outside world
Well conceived, but such rules only apply in this state of mind
The key lies in knowledge, temperance
No magical answers or escapes from reality,
But a marvellous break for a visitor passing through
