Mass & Volume

Time presses down Harder than gravity Just as relentlessly Watch the clock Fall a thousand stories Still can't step out of harm's way A reflection of light A living illusion A human without mass A human without volume

In the moment of truth I stuck with the lie Got lost in the smoke Became a slave To a weak mind Need to kill a hawk Need to steal some wings Blood like red tar Overdosed on cynicism Swept under and drowned Lured in by a siren I ran my ship aground Slash of talon Glimpse of Venus Tidal waves crashing down Need to kill a hawk Need to steal some wings Grief crawls in the shadow of time Try to keep in mind It's all finite.
