Kaleidoscope

Breaths shorten as I slip away

Gazing at the foreign reflection

My shadow I don't recognize

Controls me at my umbra in the night

My shadow I don't recognize

Controls me at my umbra in the night

Lost again

This time the barrier seems new

Why do they assume it's pretend

Let me go

But the wind mutes the echo

Then disconnect from what once was

I, I can't grasp my own design

The thoughts blooming out of our

Minds

I can't grasp my own design

The thoughts blooming out of our

Minds

Depleted by a parasite

Which doesn't take

Rather divides

Why can't they be forsaken

The lives that can't abide

Gazing at the foreign reflections

Make me feel

I don't want to slip away

And make me

Will we be whole again

Once

I once had control over me

Only the walls sketch who you are

Draw the world I haven't seen

Now

Make me feel

I'm gazing at the foreign reflection

I don't want to slip away

And make me

From what's real
