I can see the metrics but I
Can’t accept the consequences
Holding me to the deepest regions
Separating me from the masses
A glass panel reaches
From the sky to the deepest
Season to season dry
The horizon creeps I can reach it
If I try
Alone in the thickness
Dot connects to line
Assigned to me
To justify
We find the mean
And here I lie
A common theme
Outside the fold
Beyond the seam
Try to find what I can’t find
Find a mind enough like mine
To dissolve the veil
No avail
I fail to evict myself
From the space of the faceless
Baseless
It’s enough that I try hard
It’s enough that I work more
Just to take one step
In a world
That refuses to see
Anything that might be
Threatening to the stasis
You were right
You should fear me
Look away before you see
Anything I bring
I’m divisive
A crude presentation
Disrupting the station
You earned doing nothing
I could speak but I don’t speak
Every word hits the ground
Like the sound never left my mouth
I could scream, but I won’t scream
Here
In the vacuum of space
In these wasted badlands
Dot connects to line
Assigned to me
To justify
We find the mean
And here I lie
A common theme
Outside the fold
Beyond the seam
Reckoning
This song was written to highlight the subjectivity by which truth is defined and call into question systems of power which, in order to maintain themselves, have dispensed notions of sovereignty over truth unequally and with bias....
