Anything You Find

(album: This Strange Odyssey We Call Life - 2023)

No
I won't let myself
Take me tonight
No
This is the beginning of my life

Oh
I can feel you start
To change my mind
Open me up and take out
Anything you find

Lay back
Relax
I'm going to count to three
And once I do
I command your mind
Will open up to me

I'll take a look
And hit the books
To see what plagues you
In the mind
I'll take a walk inside
And let you know of
Anything I find

One
You should feel a little vertigo
But nothing
Two
Severe for you to handle
I'm right here
There are
Three
Ways that this may go
One is quick and painless
The second is slow
But the third is rare
And that's the one
It seems you'll have to bear

Get moving
This'll hurt a lot
Wanna shut down
Oh you better not
Or you'll go
Down destructive roads

Close your eyes
Breath
Don't forget
There's a world outside
That you haven't met
So let's go
Even if it's slow

And I can hear it every time
The demons start to sing
I try to find a saving grace
But no
Everything feels
Far too loud and crowded

No
I won't let myself
Take me tonight
No
This is the beginning of my life

Oh
I can feel you start
To change my mind
Open me up and take out
Anything you find

Living deep in my mind
I feel I'm starting to go insane
Leaving demons behind
But they're still sunk deep in my brain

Begging me for thing's
That'd take you miles past a nightmare
Like a fox resisting hunger
While the rabbits are right there

I don't wanna be the cause
For yet another set of claws

Do I even
Want to escape them
The Dark Auras that have
Chased me for years

Lure me with holographic
Beautiful faces
And a glimmer of dopamine
To bury my fears

Same old tune
From what seems like a lifetime
White flags up
And they take me in chains

Am I really
Holding myself hostage
In a fantasy land's illusion
Nothing is gained

Go away
I'm tired of this strangle
Go away
I'm sick of this lie
Go away
I'm in love with this angle
Go away
But I need you to die

No
I won't let myself
Take me tonight
No
This is the beginning of my life

Oh
I can feel you start
To change my mind
Open me up and take out
Anything you find
