Grounded, 5 am
The nightlite is comforting,
But gravity is holding you
Once settled into sleep,
You have watched, on repeat,
The story of your life
Across the ceiling;
And in review
You've said the air was singing
It's calling you you don't believe
These things you've never seen
Good morning, and how are you?
The weather's fine, the sky is blue
It's perfect for our seminar"
"Now close your eyes,
And start to breathe
Allow the noise to recede
Allow yourself to
Drift and fly away"
But you just stay
You've said the air was singing,
It's calling you you don't believe
These things you've never seen,
Never heard
Did you hear these voices?
Did you hear these voices calling?
Did you hear these voices calling you?
Locked into a conference room,
"We're only what our minds assume"
And rationale is leaving you
This conceit, these systems of belief,
Your counselor agrees,
"You've always marked
These boundaries, now
You're free"
And with relief
You've said the air was singing,
It's calling you,
You don't believe
These things you've never seen,
Never heard,
Never dreamed
You've said the air was singing,
It's calling you you don't believe
These things you've never seen,
Never heard,
Never dreamed
Never, never, never
Once you had a dream
Of oceans, and sunken cities;
Memories of things
You've never known
And you have never known
