Chimera

Shield your
Shield your eyes
In blindfolds
What's left behind?
Your old ways
Will never die
You caught me by surprise.

You were always there
I went out in plumes
Must have been the glare
Eclipsing me in you
Branching thru my lungs
Swell until I cave
That which you young
(Never remained)

Your mouth is like fireworks
Waxing hot and pouring forth
I know your mind is pinioned by
Chains of reason
You made it back by the skin of your teeth
Just to leave

Nothing takes your place
Sympathetic in a way you would assume
Tether slipped from space
Calculated in the rhythm of your namesake
You kept changing shape
Antithetic of the person that I knew
My world stays the same
I'm indulging in the weaponry we used

Get back

Draw your blade
I have waited so long just to be phased
Plead your case in the
Heart of the fire
You can be saved

But I wish you would've told me first
The second time for what it's worth
I know your mind is pinioned by
Chains of reason
You made it back by the skin of your teeth
Just to leave

Nothing takes your place
Sympathetic in a way you would assume
Tether slipped from space
Calculated in the rhythm of your namesake
You kept changing shape
Antithetic of the person that I knew
My world stays the same
I'm indulging in the weaponry we used

But I'm not saying it's alright
Every single misstep is magnified
