Come Home

(album: Oni - 2022)

I will run
Through the sun lit smoke
To feel the touch I know
To escape the pain that shows

If I run
Till my lungs let go
Will I reach where I must go
Why do we run from the pain we love?

With fluttering eyes
Memories brush and they pass
Then settle with the dirt all around me
Patiently wait for my return to the earth

All that is and ever was fills the space around me
I can only wonder what the sky feels like
The more I touch the less seems real fooled by all around me
This glasshouse is no longer real

Am I nothing?
Am I something?
Am I nothing?
Am I something?

Run until my lungs give up
Leaving all the ones I love
No I'll never have to feel it
How the end is not the purpose

Run until my lungs give up
Chasing down a hollow sun
No I'll never have to feel it
How it hurts to never reach the end

I don't know why, but I feel like
Everything's going by so fast...
