Whisper

Is it bad that I sometimes just have to post lyrics to songs to express myself? yeah... very original of me...

Running the race
Like a mouse in a cage
Getting nowhere but I'm trying
Forging ahead
But I'm stuck in the bed
That I made so I'm lying

But if you keep real close
Yeah, you stay real close
I will reach you

I'm down to a whisper
In a daydream on a hill
Shut down to a whisper
Can you hear me still

Eager to please,
Trying to be what they need
But I'm so very tired
I've stopped trying to find
Any peace in my mind
Because it tangles the wires

But if you keep real close
Yeah, you stay real close
I will reach you

I'm down to a whisper
In a daydream on a hill
Shut down to a whisper
Can you hear me
Can you hear me still

The sound tires on my lips
To fade away into forgetting

I'm down to a whisper
In a daydream on a hill
Shut down to a whisper
Can you hear me
Can you hear me

I'm down to a whisper
In a daydream on a hill
Shut down to a whisper
Can you hear me
Can you hear me still

Sunly

Are we, in reality, suns?
Literally. Slash. Metaphorically.



I mean, we really could be
the center of our own solar system,
being the creation and cause.
Shedding true light
on millions of intelligent life forms
and in the end we would become red giants
e-x-p-l-0-d-i-n-g
with hydrogen and helium
energy
and light


billions of years of evolution
billions of years worth of thought
worth of love
worth of understanding.

and then we suck back into ourselves.
back into the entire universe
almost sucking back in through the other side of the universe
where all of our brethren of stars have gone before us.

and the process reiterates.
...
just... what if.?
