The freezing nighttime air shatters your eyes and decimates your face
But the moon penetrates your skin with a warm sense of home
The mirror reflects the darkness around, seeing only yourself and the little nighttime creatures running all around
Music plays, giving a palette of emotion and tone
(a body of uncertainty) A body of uncertainty you wish were never gone
But now you hear it, now you see it
There- it’s coming
A giant storm of nothing blowing right into your soul
Here we are just a few days later, just standing, just sitting, just breathing
Here we are just eating, just drinking, and trading stares
Did you even think it was possible to be so empty with someone so full?
You keep your guard up even though you’re outnumbered
Just hoping that no one can see inside the king of all your being
You’re so confident, so eager, so intrigued by everything
You take a look to find yourself talking with the king
You say, “but why can’t we just show ourselves, just try and leave in peace? What are they going to do think we are freaks?”
He says, “Yes.”
Well fuck that.
So, here I am writing, writhing, sleeping in fear
I’ve got some home and a lack of real reality

Your ghost voice still haunts me
To this day I’m deafened
Your seamless movement never astray
From my direction, get away
I won’t see you
I won’t see you
Never again
I won't see you
I can’t see you
Your ghost voice never tethered
Until now you’ve always been silent
Your cold hands still breeze through my hair
Always feigning real emotion
(I’m standing here, in this moment for your presence)
(Improv vocals)
