Deep Roots

Frigid how the soul turns

Faced with immortal trouble

What disguise masks your eyes

Pride as vicious as midnight visions

Bring your shield, pray for sleep

Long is the change over

Steep is the climb

The trees wave hello

When I feel alone

When I question where

I am supposed to be

This existence vexes me

Like the voices in my head

Each man's void

Could be fixed 

With one deeply rooted spirit 

Simple yet so intricate

Could all be just a maze

With no beginning

No escape

Ghosts unveil their smooth intentions

A jaw dropping spectacle

They come to feed on our fears

So be rid of the hole in your heart

The pit churning in your stomach

For all is a mirage

We are freed by ourselves

May I tell you of eastern winds

Whipping off the shore

Splitting ships to splinters

Wrecks to slip below miles

Of cold heavy water

Bring your desire

The fall is for finding yourself

Shiver I tell you come closer

Blistering

Figuring out what everything means

Your skull has been tapped

Unwrapped and dissected

We are just breathing

Is she your queen

Skirt dirty and tearing

Hair knotted and spun

Feet worn and aching

Heart barely beating

We are just breathing

Becoming mad poisons

Enhancing the strength of vices

Do you feel as if you crossed paths

One thousand years ago

Locked eyes, moved along

Swallowed by the crowd

In the live red forest

We are just breathing
