Sapien

Even now I'm wearing you
The flame in the core of you
The deepest vein
When you try to change
You stay the same
Design your name
Token name
Chip for the game
Sapien
(I never knew your names)

Head out for the storm, so severe
Weather the death zone
And know the animal

I am this thing that needs to be
All to myself and only me
Hidden I stand for all to see

Feels like a wasted climb
To the furthest starlight
Dancing incense
Leaves you with a warning

Lonely moon
Fills the room
With a blue light of sleep

A subdued honeydew
Chemical fragile tomb

Requiem
Tranquil spell
Now I grow
Into you

(The dream)
I buried you forever after
And left you on your own
And kept you trapped in all your wonders
Every time we'd touch
I would regret the crime
Of being safe and not
Your mind aligns with mine
And we'll meet again

Rabbit hole of fate
Can't you see?
The will aching in me

The hour is long
Weary days
Fall from your lips
Bitter praise
Drinks the ground
Grail

Hidden prayer
Bitter prayer

High priest of life
Creature of the hive
Time expects you back again
Flags will fly below the sand

Called the deadline
Flung into the night
And all it took was all you had
The fear of love has made you mad

For every step
On the longest stairs
I took the weight
Endless years
Cautious years
Here
And all the stairs to nowhere
Prayerless prayer

Dancing neon spark
The strength you needed
Four sheets to the wind
Open eyes
To all desires that you'd behead
And now the genie rubs the lamp again

Knives in the night
The stand within
And no one wins
No one wins
Bones and skin
A name

You never had a name
Forgiven slave
Animal
