Whenever I drift
by the unknown
Feign like I notice
a fundamental tone
The fine pedals open
and close offended
More explanation
and nothing shown
Kind of like if a friend exits
without a sign
Glimmering like
a precious stone
Maybe we share the dream
for 20 nights in a row
I would feel better knowing
that I was alone
Wherever scientists turn
lead to birds
Torment ignites essence delights
from the earth
What you find shocking
They find amusing
Something else to soften
a sadistic urge
When they tell you
the extent of the vice
Then the prime time mission
is to choke the statistician
And like the senses
that you're lurking behind
While it gnaws right through
to your core
Oh I'd twist it more
If you think that you're free
Free like a kite
Watching as it flies by
Spy the unknown
Focus on the quiet oars
Tell me how far you'd go
Go where you like
Knowing your air won't last
Last one to know
Would you feel better
holding the stars up
What if the beast escapes
apes have it good
And separates like a cloud
loud like a fault
Seeps into the hollow bones
Wouldn't its eyes expand
And zero in like a scope
I might feel better
Knowing I wasn't alone
