Your Own Myth

I'm floating down the wrong stream
Believing in the wrong dream

Caught up in a myth that isn't my own
One step forward, two steps back
Never leaving home

Instead of living it I want it on a t-shirt
Instead of feeling it I want it on a t-shirt

How did I get back here once again
How did I land so far from who I am
Disappointed and stuck
And they tell me I'm spiraling up

You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes
Floating on someone else's stream
You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes
Scrolling through someone else's dream

It's not a punishment
She sends you back on purpose
To do your work
To live your purpose
To make it work
To face the same challenge with new-found wisdom

It's not a punishment
Stop fighting it

I want it on a t-shirt
So I can cover all the hurt

You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes
Floating on someone else's stream
You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes
Scrolling through someone else's dream

Like a rocket ship
Spiral out of it

Frustration's inoculation, sublimation of all the past hurt and all the pain
Frustration's collaboration, conversation with your soul's true beautiful strength
Frustration's an invitation, invocation, incarnation of a new level of you
Frustration's an exploration, exaltation of the myth of moving forward

Call me now into my next adventure
(As long as I'm spiraling it's ok)
Pull me deeper, drown me til I laugh
(How would I know I was here unless I started somewhere else)
Call me up into my next adventure
Pull me deep, hold me close
Fill my lungs with your love
Hold me deep, pull me close
Fill my lungs with your love

I want it on a t-shirt
So I can feel my full worth
I want it on a t-shirt
So I can flirt with my rebirth

You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes
Floating on someone else's stream
You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes
Scrolling through someone else's dream

You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes
Floating on someone else's stream
You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes
Scrolling through someone else's dream

Dream
(Spiral, child)
(Spiral, child)
(Spiral, child)
