now now now

Seeing dawn at the end Of the days long night When tomorrow seems Possibility But happiness is today Not then but always Now now now
An unexamined life Interrupted by a call Awake alert unsafe Anxious towards it all Once you fall Human nature’s upon you You slip an inch And the ticking takes its toll
Timidity becomes conventionality And life’s whims and vanities Middle aged mediocrity And deluded hypocrisy All confidence and bluster And sure without knowing The will you can muster To just keep going
To face the hours And the hours after that
If life could be simple If life could just be (But what is life without a mind The possibilities and choose)

Force, not the Water
03:10

To say of anyone that they are this or they are that To hold them under The surface ripples and waves and drifting anythings That shield the bottom Shade anemones the flowing curtains that buckle under Currents and encompassing tides But still live despite the efforts of the swirling winds Air we need to stop with water
Value anything By a life preserved
A comment and a superficial mark Like a wave, the force, not the water
If if get it all wrong, if I see just a face And not a person Mistake distortions, for solid meanings And hard sentiment If I get it all wrong, if I feel the waves Against my self Or I could start listening, and stop assuming And enjoy the view

See ourselves for who we are Or either side of what we were The place I stand is not new Because others have stood where I am too
Our thoughts inform the choices we see And Actions remind us we are free To be more than just moving parts A pump is more than just a heart
If we were all suddenly somebody else We all have broken parts, we need to fix our hearts
The one I watch is suffering The tables turn and it is me Without love of my fellow man Surviving isn’t something I
Our thoughts inform the choices we see And Actions remind us we are free To be more than just moving parts A pump is more than just a heart
The broken heart of someone else Is another chance to save myself A reflective stare into another’s life Me in his eyes
If we were all suddenly somebody else

fear death by water

i had, not thought, that death had (undone), so many others starve while i am drowned aware yet trapped by my own lack
my head is trapped by the same ice that holds my body, the frozen water stills my arteries i can still see around, i can still see the suffering, i can still feel
water flows through its reasoned channels, i must find a way to put off this mental barrier i can't save everyone, so why save one, why not just save myself?
if i can't, who can, if i won't, then who will, my frozen body still moves i must try harder, to forget my self, play with my heart and not my head
you always have a way, of breaking through the ice it's up to you there is meaning in everything we do it’s up to you
inaction is an action
the only way (the only way) to save my self (to save my self ) is to save another (another) the only way (the only way) the only way (to save my self) is to save another (another) the only way (the only way) to save myself is to play with my heart and not my head play with my heart and not my head play with my heart and not my head
