Deadlights

Echo Chamber

Deadlights


A thousand voices yelling over one another
A power struggle echoes in me
When I'm lost in the noise
Hidden undercover
One echoes so loud it’s deafening
I hear your voice, through the void
Above them all
It keeps me from climbing up the walls
Defused, in awe, consumed
I clear my mind and focus in on you

I see you in me
I see you in everything
A bodiless floating head, a boundless energy
This is what you do to me. This is what you do to me
I’ve seen your face in craters on the Moon
Every face everywhere, all reflections of you
You can call me crazy, but you know I'm not
I'm just mad with pareidolia
The Rorschach test can never lie
I see you with or without my eyes

I see you in me
I see you in everything
In the light of the Sun
Your whole world without a shadow
You entered into my fragile psyche
Where nothing planted had ever grown

Vines cut through your feet as you walked through
And planted in the last blue rose
(You stayed,) you never left my side
Don’t ask me how. Don’t ask me why
The missing piece of my mind
The anomaly that changed my life

A thousand voices yelling over one another
One echoes so loud it’s deafening
I hear your voice, through the void
Above them all, you always find me
No matter how far I fall

I see you in me
I see you in everything
In the light of the Sun
Your whole world without a shadow
