Jubilance

Do the nights seem darker?
Have the streetlights dimmed... or gone out, even?
The blackness, caving in.
Maybe that's just how it's always been.
Bloom in me.
There must be something more to see.
Stars streak through the jubilance.
A slowly fading luminance.
The ridges build division and I am out of range.
Do the days seem washed out?
A bleak and sun bleached blur,
swallowed by the drowsy waves.
Disappear into the haze.
Tell me, is this how it's always been?
Bloom in me.
There must be something more to see.
Stars streak through the jubilance.
A slowly fading luminance.
The ridges build division and I am out of range.
Bloom in me.
There must be something more to see.
Stars streak through the jubilance.
A slowly fading luminance.
The ridges build division and I am out of range.
Bloom in me.
There must be something more to see.

I Am Not Alive

You are faceless and you are tasteless.
You are shapeless and you are gone.
I fear your presence and your absence.
I know your essence and you are wrong.
No longer laughing,
I am collapsing.
The vista is expanding
and I am not alive.
I see your features written in the sand
and I see the tide advancing, swallowing the land.
I see the truth now, plain and clear:
daylight cannot save me from here.
No longer laughing,
I am collapsing.
The vista is expanding
and I am not alive.
A clavicle, devoured;
these dog days, truly soured.
Two hundred thousand hours
and I am not alive.
My palms bubble your flesh.
Searing to the bone,
disjoining all the rest.
I trace a schism in my chest.
No longer laughing,
I am collapsing.
The vista is expanding
and I am not alive.
A clavicle, devoured;
these dog days, truly soured.
Two hundred thousand hours
and I am not alive.

This Analeptic Dream
04:13

This is my tenth demise
and winter passing sounds the final chime.
No visions cloud my eyes
and I don't mind the cold, not this time.
I am lurking in the afterglow.
The thaw will come when it is time to go.
I see my breath, and that is how I know
the fall has ended and the wind will blow.
Do you hear my bones cracking beneath the snow?
Can you feel the heat emanating while I sleep?
I will spend my nights bathed in the bluest light.
The bells, they lured me into this analeptic dream.
We were so much younger then;
naïve to safety offered by the glen.
Do not mourn me.
No flowers by the creek.
Hold no illusions;
this is not death, but sleep.
Do you hear my bones cracking beneath the snow?
Can you feel the heat emanating while I sleep?
I will spend my nights bathed in the bluest light.
The bells, they lured me into this analeptic dream.
Trust your compass
and your instincts.
They will show you where to dig.
Leave the road,
track the footprints.
They will show you how to live.
Show you how to live.
Do you hear my bones cracking beneath the snow?
Can you feel the heat emanating while I sleep?
I will spend my nights bathed in the bluest light.
The bells, they lured me into this analeptic dream.
Do you hear my bones cracking beneath the snow?
The bells lured me into this analeptic - into this analeptic dream.
