lyrics

All the times that I've awoken
not yet knowing what was real
Possibilities for seconds
try to grasp as they are sealed

Now I stare at them through minutes
their wrapping gorgeous, but opaque
I know that beauty lies beneath it
Beauty now lies in its way

So many worlds have faded from me
they'd been right in front of my eyes
I spend so much time discerning patterns
but come to find that I am blind

When the shapes have turned to scribbles
where the words spelled out the path
All the memories step forward
drawing future from the past

Now I find refuge in the seconds
I can't hold before they're sealed
They hold space between the darkness
and the light where wounds won't heal

In eternities immobile
feeling paralyzed again
I awaken to a moment
in motion, as I've always been
