We play with our feelings
We toy with our heart
We give up our body
To escape the dark

It never was ours
So we treated it thusly
Escape with me now
Do you trust me?

If you do your a fool
If you don't you're alone
It's easier to be human
Than just flesh and bone

Seek ye the empty
Hold not til full
For senseless the senses
Wear us dull
Christian Reid Oct 2014
I'm a container for a thousand souls
The voice of the ancients embodied
The strength of their sinews
And weight of their wishes
Holds me and presses upon me

I am a story that's never been told
An epic wrought in space-time
The dust of a thousand supernovas
Feigning to hold the mind

I am the shadow spirit
That lives on when you die
My dormant roots awaken
Behind your sleeping eye

I am a dream of god's and
He is one of mine
Both are a song that's fleeting
But the echo is heard for all time

— The End —
