In the greenest ocean I find myself swimming As my head goes under I recall Emerald waves wash years of built up armor off me Hardened shell of soft nights in the fall Smoke arises from the core Don't quite know what we are drinking for Thick segmented insects climb through the floor Overwhelming feeling steals my air right from me Manually moving leaves me sore Sinking in the water now, is it relaxing? Trying to get back from the before Working just like you knew I could Ink and paper nails and wood Smashed up windows let the sweet breeze in for good What's at the core of you? What's at the core of me? Do we start out the same? Did we grow differently? Fruit rotting in its leaves Falls to earth, ready for anything Even in my dreams they live as I remember Never have they let me just forget. Washing all my dusty corners with seawater Finally cleared some space for my regret What's at the core of you? What's at the core of me? Do we start out the same? Did we grow differently? Seeds stretch their arms to me Growing skin, bark of the apple tree

In a dreamy room, in a sea of familiar faces, I see him standing: / familiar face Don't think he'll come over if I don't let him know I'm looking, so I don't. Turn back to the table to allow the investigation to continue / Oracle ways She puts all the cards down in a line, side by side, then turns them upwards / Showing their face One by one their upturned mouths align to tell me all about my future: The breakneck speed at which I live my life will only break my neck someday Time has elapsed now. As the party's winding down, I suddenly see him / facing away Laughing with a woman who has captured his attention with her dry humor / and beautiful face In a moment they will leave but I won't see them go, and I won't miss them / Sounds easy to say I know what I want though, and no part of it is with them. I want something / Nobody can take One by one I pick out all the signs They don't differ in their warning The breakneck speed at which we live our lives will only break our necks someday One by one we sink into decline All together as we're falling: The breakneck speed at which we lived our lives Only breaks our necks

about

Where a small and hollow-boned bird child falls to its death, and is eaten by the hungry and swarming ants, there can sometimes be hydrangea flowers. And, blurry in the distance, shimmering in the mid September heat, awaiting the respite of the new moon in Virgo: a series of tall, shining green towers.
