lyrics

the storm penetrated what was
once an impermeable field of metaphor
and soaked it to the core
at least it tried
but the center was left dry

it was there that this mistress painted her map
on a table planning her attack

I saw through her trap
it was you facing her, but it opened to me
within the light colored chalk her nails carved to see
something pointing to an eye in the middle
little and dark she sought to embark
on a quest into the I within U
demanding that the path be shown

I refused and let my fury grow and glow
blasting my wrath from across the table
proving to her that I was willing and able
to defend my sanctuary until its end

it was then that her face melted away
no longer able to mask her disgusting form
hideous and pale she disappeared
as I left my body for freedom in air

I tried not to care but was too alarmed
when I witnessed my corpse lying still with folded arms
on the same desk as before
not knowing what it meant I swam towards the floor
it was easier to fly than to return
I struggled and strained to not be burned
by the consequences of my alleviation
even though spirit suffered from starvation
I clung to a body not ready for release
and was planted inside of one that was dreaming

it was a dormant self, neglected for something else
but I realized it was me and woke from my sleep
to the same seen that ended my dream
