The Tempest

Woke with the radio arguing with my veins
Poured last night's promises down the sink and watched them drown
Slid my sins into my pockets like loose change
But not enough for a cab or forgiveness
Worked a smile into the corner of my face
Held the world together for a moment
Then it peeled away

I dig with my bare hands
Nails full of time, lungs full of dust
If I ever reach daylight
I’ll tell it the truth
I was the tempest nobody checked for
And I stormed anyway

You said weekend like a promise
I took it like a dare
Leaned too close and burned my palms on someone else's fire
Now I trace the outlines of names I used to keep
They’re thin as the smoke of a cigarette and gone before I can say them
But I kept the good parts pinned beneath my ribs
I did

I dig with my bare hands
Nails full of time, lungs full of dust
If I ever reach daylight
I’ll tell it the truth
I was the tempest no one checked for
And I stormed anyway

I practice apologies in bathroom mirrors 
Watch the sink fill with rehearsals 
Watch my eyes leaving themselves

I dig with my bare hands
Nails full of time, lungs full of dust
If I ever reach daylight
I’ll tell it the truth
I was the tempest no one checked for
And I stormed away

Foreverworld Lyrics © BLACKRUNS

I fell asleep on the grass
fairies stole my glass heart.
You flickered all on the screen
as if I was watching a film
As if God was with me,
argue, laugh, and swear at me.
My dreams turned nightmares on speed
Running away from decree
Forever World
Dragging me down
bleeding all wrongs
yet you love now
as if the present wasn’t bleeding
Forever World,
why don’t you feel?
when someone dies
do you make deals
give me a call I’ll still be waiting
Philosophise all you want
the truth is we are all alone.
Swarms of flies on the street,
9 o’clock and no one breathes
Your boss, her boss
you better floss.

Make sure your teeth reflect the applause
Do not forget the kids at school
Our GPS is April’s fool
Forever World,
beauty won’t save you
if you are wrong
The shame will grate you
Fed up of shallow swimming
Forever world
Sick of the words
My Euripides
Sings a song

I’m tired of meetings and the bling bling
I refuse all your trauma
huffs, and puffs, the art banana
Opinions, I never cared
You pray to mirrors
While I dare

To look for words that aren’t there


Forever World,
you know you’re wrong.
I’m scared —
are you?

It’s always easier to slide down the hill
all at maximum speed
than live amongst those that kill
You stream it just like a film
thanksgiving without the giving
conspiracies that ain’t livin
wait to be saved by dreams
you never believed in
Forever world
we are exhausted.
our 9-5 burns on a roster
we’re all just hanging by a wire
Your sex, your race, your religion
we are diseased just like the pigeons,
Their satellites divide empires
Forever World,
you know you’re wrong.

The End 

I can't make sense of it anymore
The world is not the same
People lost their humanity
The ocean's always angry
The sun leans in
Shadows move without bodies
Whispers fall heavier than screams

No sound remains
Only the hum of an ending
A silence so sharp
It cuts through thought
I open my eyes
But there is no I
Only the echo of something that used to be
And the echo whispers
This was always how it was gonna be

The sky slips its skin
Revealing veins of static
And colors that shouldn't exist
Mountains melt into rivers that flow upwards
Cities fold like paper
Swallowed by the void
Language collapses
Words unravel
Mid sentence

No sound remains
Only the hum of an ending
A silence so sharp
It cuts through thought
I open my eyes
But there is no I
Only the echo of something that used to be
And the echo whispers
This was always how it was gonna be

I reach for my hand
But it isn't mine anymore
Fingers stretch like shadows
Graspin' at nothing
Graspin' at everything
And still the sun leans closer
And closer until the world screams in light
And then there is
No world at all

No sound remains
Only the hum of an ending
A silence so sharp
It cuts right through thought
I open my eyes
But there is no I
Only the echo of something that used to be
And the echo whispers

This was always how it was gonna be
