Verse

We’re looking at the same moon though
So I guess you can say
We’re kind of connected

§

Whenever you believe you know better
You miss an opportunity to know better

You have no control over the future
That isn’t now
So make the right decisions
And head towards yourself
Don’t stress

The thing about beauty
Is that it’s pure on its own
It depends on nothing
But the beholder

No more it’s going to be okay
It already is okay

There is much power in the way you see things

§

Only thing left to do
Is become better than you ever were and never stop moving
Or else you’ll always be stuck here

We’re going against our very nature to be civilized
And it causes us great pain
But for some reason
We believe our nature is to be civilized
It was what we were taught, I suppose

The rules we put up around us are nothing but bars of a cell
If we were to act naturally with our instincts and heart
Our lives would be much more beautiful
But instead, we don’t
We impose a structure to construct a passed down collective reality, because at some point we placed nature beneath us
But like all rocks of a stream, it will wither down, letting nature flow
But until then, we wage war

§

Let ‘em watch
A chance to learn

§

I imagine talking to people as a simulation to actually talking to people
So many fantasies of being with people
Even dreams
But none real

You gotta lose yourself to find yourself
How could you find something when you already know where it is?

§

I need out
Wait a little longer
Almost there

You’re not in it for the men or to find a man
You just want a rush of lust
And when it’s gone, you follow
Coldly use them up
Toss ‘em when you’re done
Excuse it with a dating label
But honey you know it’s all fun
Convincing yourself in the back
Maybe one will do
Knowing in truth
None will

Cause you’re not in it to find a man
You could care less for the man
Before you grow impatient and shove him aside
Get back in line

You fancy some lust
The high of a chase with a new feel
A new lust
But that’s okay
Be honest with yourself

§

I’m just a lonely little kid in a small sail boat
Drifting across the ocean hoping for an end
Not of drifting
But of drifting alone

Feel so small standing next to the ginormous hope seeping out of me
I want to enjoy life with people
But I don’t get to decide the other way
If people want to enjoy life with me

§

I love people who let their hearts shine without a single bit of shade
Letting their true beauty flow outwards onto the world around
I have many blinds to rid of

But one day
My heart and soul will be free
I can’t wait for that day
I’ve been holding myself far too much
I’m gonna explode love

§

How you treat anyone doesn’t define them
It defines you

§

There is no feeling that is not propagated outwards by your body
Through motions, gases, sweats, whatever
Your body always moves with what you feel
And our bodies subconsciously read the ways others move
Unknowingly we understand one another
But how sharply
And how well do we understand what our body perceives

When you reject someone’s true feelings of sadness, happiness, etc., how does it affect the person?
Do they question its authenticity, believe they’re feeling what they’re not supposed to?
If someone lives through trauma, yet everyone around them behaves as if they haven’t, what’s the outcome?
What if it’s a child we’re talking about?
Who’s still learning about the world
They don’t grieve when they’re supposed to
Taught that their feelings are wrong
That what they feel is wrong
Imagine the consequences such would have on their growing psyche
Creating a broken core raising a broken person

§

There’s two types of debt
If you’re putting yourself there to grow from it, you’re golden

You will never change
Unless you want it yourself
