There's something else circling overhead now,
|
A different kind of creature, bigger, out in the distance.
|
I'm following, watching, and I find myself again
|
Underneath churning winds that draw me in.
|
Inside, a microcosm forms as emotions imitate the clouds,
|
Twisting themselves into a rope, knotted at my heart
|
And anchored in the manic horizon.
|
Let's free ourselves from this stagnant mess for a while.
|
I've grown so tired of the same damn crises.
|
Let's leave a trail of debris in our wake,
|
We'll watch the birth of catastrophes, nightly.
|
I need to be a part of this wild machine.
|
|
I don't care where it takes me, or if I make it out alive.
|
I'm going to chase it til it breaks me, not giving up until I get inside.
|
I can feel the electricity being pulled from the sky
|
Into the eye of this storm, and spit back out with a violent force,
|
Terrifying with it's indiscriminate reach,
|
Echoing in my bones, thrilling me to my very core.
|
It cracks open time, and all the pressure in a moment is released.
|
The sound of it pounds the earth, then throbs through the ground.
|
|
I live this life always running to keep up,
|
With the wind following, driving forward,
|
Or in front of me, pushing back.
|
Sometimes, I'm moving so fast, as if weightless,
|
Other times, it feels as if my body's being dragged.
|
I'm racing my hopes along the veins of the country,
|
It's so hard not to fall behind.
|
|
I bury a drop of my blood beneath the soil of each city,
|
So that I can return and find myself, even if there's nothing else left.
