The Path That Strays

Chasing angels, you lose your way, and through the valley shadows chase you. here is where i fear the words lose meaning. this is where i fear the words they leave me now. twisting scenes in and out of reach, blurring forms that bleed, melting into each. slow motion crash test, fractured memories, violence, all with helium ease...pieces. pick up what you need. overcome, spilling out and bursting at the seams. spinning seconds, pick them up. like dry leaves underneath your feet. the ghost of a moon, shadows at your back. there you pause and hide underneath the leaves. branches broke and bleeding, birds that sing of feeling despite everything... pieces. pick up what you need. overcome, spilling out and bursting at the seams. spinning seconds, pick them up, like dry leaves underneath your feet. love and death, a line on line, order on order, a little here, a little there
