Gripping the Spirit

[00:24.81] Primitive
[00:25.32] Naive
[00:25.83] and reckless
[00:26.89] The face of my sadness lashes the sky
[00:29.68] I wanna know why I'm here
[00:31.77] I wanna know why
[00:34.95] Always searching
[00:36.10] for a meaningless purpose
[00:39.13] Pain's an addiction
[00:40.95] I keep calling it teacher
[00:44.56] At the end aren't we all best
[00:46.59] at deluding ourselves
[00:48.88] All the things that kept me going
[00:50.90] no longer satisfy
[00:53.29] Not looking for a new direction
[00:55.56] for the first time I don't feel stuck
[01:02.75]
[01:13.74] All these lies
[01:18.19] How could I speak of the truth
[01:21.99] All this time
[01:26.33] How could I not see the end of it
[01:29.90] All these walls
[01:34.56] How could I collide with existence
[01:38.19] All these struggles
[01:42.77] How could I feel my heart
[01:47.13]
[01:52.29] Merciful
[01:52.74] Brutal
[01:53.20] and stainless
[01:54.21] The blade of truth
[01:55.59] slashes my ties
[01:57.11] I wish I'd go back
[01:58.62] I wish could forget
[02:02.31] I saw my own teeth
[02:04.23] gripping at the spirit
[02:06.55] I saw my own hands
[02:08.80] choking it to death
[02:11.63] I let go and felt so small
[02:17.32] so insignificant
[02:21.45] It seemed safe between the rigid walls
[02:26.32] now I'm lost in the void
[02:31.26] Just a child in the open space
[02:36.40] floating in nothingness
[02:40.79] I got no centre, no gravity, no roots
[02:45.45] But now the stars can reach for me
[02:53.18]
