B L A C K E N E D

My aspirations lead me forward
My thoughts check left and right
And my recklessness always drives me backwards
While I stare at an empty sky
It's colder now
And I can't see a thing, I think

The air I breathe is clearer
Though my fever, I burned like fire
The earth I kiss seeks shelter
From what's above, water
It's nicer now
Yet I can't touch it, or even scoot closer to

The ever-growing dream
Whatever gets a gleam in my eye
Or just gets me to smile
When I look in the mirror
At last I'll cover it
I don't want to see who's there

Up north is where the face is
When it's botched by my arm to the west
And my east tries its best
To tug on what's southest
It's darker out
So will I ever find it?

How about you make it all blackened?
How about we turn off the sun?
I am burning under the eye of god
What if my body is numb
Because I fed it to somebody else
Something made my body its home
I'm prone to

The ever-growing dream
Whatever gets a gleam in my eye
Or just gets me to smile
When I look in the mirror
At last I'll cover it
I don't want to see what's left of

The ever-sucking scene
Of me on the stage
Thanking everyone who doubted me
Knowing all along that

My vision is what leads me forward
Yet when I check left and right
I ask, will I ever get there?
I know now
Why the stars are blackened
