To endure, by the skin of my teeth Just to pass won’t do to make it through In parts, spiritually, mentally, physically grade me Disconnecting the senses Looking for the limbs I try to feel for it again, reaching up Reaching out from the grave again Through the numb Looking to the parts to mend You got me right in the chink of my armor Just know I put up a fight Blood, tears of the knight Of the knight Of the Knight Peril mute fear Tell me wrong from right A nail biter, a pearl clutcher It’s too late for me To late to save me, it’s how I’m made to be To die on my feet, a zombie Stumble to fall repeatedly I won’t accept defeat or sympathy I won’t give up my fight You got me right in the chink of my armor Just know I put up a fight Blood, tears of the knight Of the knight Of the Knight Peril mute fear Tell me wrong from right A nail biter, a pearl clutcher It’s too late for me Too late to save me, it’s how I’m made to be To die on my feet, a zombie Stumble to fall repeatedly I won’t accept defeat or sympathy I won’t give up my fight I look to reattach Somehow grow it back, the feeling The peace of mind they stole from me Somehow grow it back, the feeling The loss in battle that hardened me Fingers hold me together Still flesh velvet tears

Tower of Me 03:30
Where they can’t take me Only on foot This is a journey you can’t see You follow but can’t lead I didn’t die, I carry it inside But it takes a piece of me away everyday Up and down the Uzumaki spiraling staircase The thoughts surface Deep inside I knew, I knew it Just being strong for me I saw the loss coming Against gravity Standing on the backs of my past selves Moving with their help A synchronization of realization Against gravity The tower of me an age every story A bird told me The way of the butterflies showed me The way the flowers whisper to me And the way the storm shook Took the fear from me The way it always was Never the because Confidence in the unknown Peace with the why did this choose us As comfort of form in the void I didn’t die, I carry it inside But it takes a piece of me away everyday Up and down the Uzumaki spiraling staircase The thoughts surface Deep inside I knew, I knew it Just being strong for me I saw the loss coming Against gravity Standing on the backs of my past selves Moving with their help A synchronization of realization Against gravity The tower of me an age every story The quake as emotion moves through me Against gravity

I will dream again, and we will meet again Because I cope with beauty And I cry with rage and hopelessness For the one who spoke sweetly Said he’d be waiting for me With a smile I felt And I still see vividly I know he saved it just for me Lover, bring your patience Determination and fortitude to see it through The utmost loyalty, lover Eyes only for me And I will dream again, and we will meet again, soon Because I cope with beauty And I cry with rage and hopelessness A dash of fear I love him dearly The feeling of him stays with me The radiance of him The smile I still see vividly Though he’s yet to return to me I will dream again, and we will meet again Because I cope with beauty And I cry with rage and hopelessness And I cry with rage, with rage And hopelessness, careful elegance A dash of fear, I’m shaking I will dream again, and we met again, soon Pray the feeling stays like you Though your face fades from my memory The feeling I remember locked in one of my many hearts Archived away And I will dream again, and we will meet again, soon, soon, soon Because I cope with beauty And I cry with rage and hopelessness Careful elegance Lover, bring your patience Determination and fortitude to see it through The utmost loyalty, lover Soon, soon, soon

Peril 02:50
Became what I sought It met me hunting in the dark Still I can’t name it myself, myself What I was really asking for Better late than never Burnt the bridges there’s no exit There’s no exit The years alone prepared me Like no other ever could, care for me Words they weren’t ready to hear To speak it I wouldn’t even now The consequences All came with peril No safety, no certainty The stinger of the tongue From the skull, the venom My heart is open, and it speaks in piques And it speaks in blood Pounds for release with alarm This is nothing new I said I leader They gave me a cause With nothing to my name I said a trailblazer Question yourself Acting on intuition, listen The years alone prepared me Like no other ever could, care for me Words they weren’t ready to hear To speak it I wouldn’t even now The consequences All came with peril No safety, no certainty The stinger of the tongue From the skull, the venom My heart is open, speaks in piques And it speaks in blood Pounds for release with alarm
