Blurry Waters

[Verse]

The world spins raw and crooked skies

Brain's a puzzle where chaos flies

I try to hold a thought in my grip

But it slips away like a sinking ship

[Verse 2]

Staring past the mirrored stream

Ripples twist like a shattered dream

The edges fade into a foggy play

My heart can't tell the night from day

[Chorus]

Mmm I can't even see it clear

Other than the water near

The liquid truth it bends and lies

Mmm it whispers where the silence hides

[Verse 3]

Hands reach out but grasp no form

Through the calm or through the storm

I don’t know why it feels this way

Like colors blend and start to sway

[Verse 4]

My brain hurts where thoughts collide

Echoes hum and they won’t abide

The weight of nothing feels so wide

I’m on this wave no place to hide

[Bridge]

The water laughs in a language strange

Its voice is smooth but its meanings change

I am but a ghost on its flowing stage

Where time falls out of its paper cage
