soul song


i was wandering the streets
like a fool without a plan
i was seeing god in everything
it was more than i could understand

and i tripped on good intentions
and i saw their lord
she said, there’s a limit to my dimensions
but many more than you’ve ignored

and i learned to hold my breath
and i saw their lord
and he looked a lot like death
and all our demons were his hord

and i climbed the highest peak
and i saw their lord
he said, i’m lying when i speak
and i’m out my fucking gourd

and i got down on my knees
and i saw their lord
and he was howling with the rest of us
screaming, wait till you get bored
just wait till you bored
oh, just wait till you get bored

and i opened up my heart
and i saw their lord
she said, you failed from the start
and there’s nothing left to be explored

i was wandering the streets
i felt the full extent of emptiness
like a singer with no soul
like a soul without a song
like a mirror without reflections
alone, to freeze in godless cold
