Truth is Love

Look how we can move Through the only place we’ve known Look how fast we’re going Towards the wall of bricks we’ve thrown Look at how we got here From the land we’re skyward bound Look at who we’ve stepped on So we never touch the ground I can see your face I know what you’re thinking I can tell that disgrace Is what we’re both feeling But we don’t want to talk Cuz it’s a losing battle So we get ourselves packed And we’re ready to travel See the light is shining brightly From the distance infinite See it fade into the deep blue Of our minds where hearts won’t fit There shines a man who calls himself wise He’ll take the shortcut right of dying Where earth will sink and sea will rise Afoot we drive on boats we’re flying I can see your face I know what you’re feeling I can tell an embrace Is what we’re both thinking And though we’ve tried to talk About our losing battle We find we can’t leave here No matter how much we travel

Begin your day with a head full of rage You don’t have time to listen to my words You have your freedom but choose the cage And laugh it all off as though it’s absurd

Your words get more irrational and painful Your eyes they stab me like a knife Your quick to take but not to refill All that I’ve worked for my whole life

And here we are together in darkness Everything is compromised Remember when you looked at me With nothing but love inside your eyes

I’m here, I’m listening, half a man I’m sorry, I’m wrong, the hurt will end I thought I was punished But the whip’s held in my hand Take me down from this void Now that I see you understand

You have to see that I can not avoid it You don’t have to sacrifice dreams Give thanks to the world and try not to destroy it You’ll be welcome to all that it brings

So don’t get held back by the forces That push you down onto your knees Remember life is only choices And lies are insecurities

And here we are in silence Nothing here with you On which we stand, a threshold Nothing left to lose.

It’s funny how people Get lost in their games They look with their hands And the use their good names They see you so small there They play with your mind Proved they were so smart Then challenge your time Looking into your eyes Making you become real Then a drink to the interest Lost words with a heel Melting the instant You feel the mistake The thoughts had you caught up And so did your space On a seat in a vehicle That all became unspeakable Kissed your lips for a moment The soul is proven breakable This dream became real Someone can be trusted This life void of reason This bubble has busted From the moment in heaven We’re falling like hell To a place they won’t find us To a place where nothing is well Separate the anxiety Tear apart what we do Crack away our foundation Until nothing’s holding you It’s funny how love Can hurt so many ways You’re blinded by their hearts And destroy their good names They see you no more there They pay you no mind They prove you were so wrong You’ve wasted their time But looking in your eyes They see that it’s real And nothing can be done For all that you feel

Hold your breath For words at last Your steady light The darkness has To keep the peace To mind disruption The truth will cease With your deception You hold me down You try to take me To the ground My love, you hate me In decadent white Scrubbed clean, I’m pure You’ve become a disease Without any cure You gain, you’re nothing You stake your claim You hear me crumble You lose the blame I open the casket I give in to give back I buried the hatchet You’ve found to attack I go it alone I’m all out with you I blow up your phone With an arson of truth Hold no death For words have cast Your steady choice No darkness has I fell into you You tear yourself down No curse over you You search and I’m found Under the beacon A brilliant light Til you see existence We’ll be all right

Cutting through this moment A polished edge of instance A solid image as we’re frozen A broken fold of indifference The dimensions we can understand The pretentious mind unknowing This body of light from end to end The seed of truth we’re sown in Pieces fragmented we’ve labeled time What lies between us embraced as space Stacked upon us in body and mind Every moment we’ve come to face A cell contained within a cell Traveling without a passage A body trapped within a shell A carrier without a message Every thought a branch of consequence A choice that creates an entity Before we make a move for evidence The future brings back all of it’s empathy We are what we matter No matter what we are Solidity may shatter In pieces life moves on
