The Reigns

I sat and contemplated everything
And nothing came
This dry skin is aging and cracking
But I still sing

Let the sun wash over me
These warm thoughts
Are the shade of the truth

Seem to be a forest growing out of harvest
Keeping me sustained
Straying from the obvious into the strange
I was at an effort
Ending up the same

What voice speaks now
Other than my own echo in the cavern
Of our useless skull?
I am just a stain on the dress you've made
The beauty in the stitching
Elegance of us

Block the rain aiming at this broken shell
Countless as far as I can tell
The ways in which you sing

I rode your back
Take hold through the reigns
Laughing all the way

What can we fill up in our short lives
Making us complete,
Allowing us to breathe?
When death is washed away
We shall unveil this vital mystery
I still need to reach
The life inside of me
The life inside...

I rode your back
Take hold through the reigns
Laughing all the way
