Chaos Reigns

Our calling card: "it is what it is"

We turned back into kids held up by legs

And we were waiting for the chaos to end

Searching for the eyes of our old friends

Can't write an epilogue with nothing to say

Every word's failure, that's the word of the day

On this otherwise average Tuesday

Or any otherwise average Tuesday

Fear is nipping at our heels again

Do we run away from it or greet it as a friend?

Untethered, unhinged, or deranged

All the words for the world or the torturous brain

A flower grows in a crack in the pave

Meant to be wild and brave

I'll follow you into the cloud of unknowing

Time stands still but the wind's still blowing

Searching in a formless abyss

I hear myself call out your name

Fear is nipping at our heels again

Do we run away from it or greet it as a friend?

Follow you into the cloud of unknowing

Time still stands still and the wind is still blowing

I wonder how this will change you

Will your softness remain true?

When there's no problems left to solve

Nothing left to fix

When you're not scanning for the exits

Not assessing risk

When there's no problems left to solve

Nothing left to fix

When you're not scanning for the exits

Not assessing risk

When there's no problems left to solve

Nothing left to fix

When you're not scanning for the exits

Not assessing risk

Fear is nipping at our heels again

Do we run away from it or greet it as a friend?

And when it catches up to us like we knew the whole time

Will it destroy us as we're begging for our lives

Do we release it and forgive it for its crimes?
