K-18

Searching for a sound to ground me
A familiar strain, resuscitate a sliver, a morsel or a sip
Trust - I wanna fall backwards and
Know my bones won't shatter on cold marble
Blue marbles in a vase

One way trip in reverse on a track of the eighth
The blue van on track
A Sunday Drive
Back when skies were blue because they were perfect
We didn't know any other way
Clouded characters fade, drain, dissipate

And when will I feel it?
What's on the other side
When will they find out?
All of these things I hide
And I want these moments to play out
Like a movie scene
What's at the end?
K-18

Best pattern's reversible
Through my mirror I see you and you and you
"I Feel The Earth Move"
Clothes on lines with infinite time to dry
And we don't die; oh but we do die
Look ahead, he's already dead
Shattered, shattered my theory

Teach me teach
Preach me preach
Encourage me, nourish me
K-18 at night under starlight

And when will I feel it?
What's on the other side
When will they find out?
All of these things I hide
And I want these moments to play out
Like a movie scene
What's at the end?
K-18
