We’ve met before Your empty wall No proof you ever existed Paint your shadow if it brings you some small comfort “I am still here”
The man who stood Above the world Learnt to fail Is not to fall Returns with two feet to the ground to say “Fuck you, I’ve seen you And you are very small”
“Be at peace” He said – It’s all in your head
We wait Close your eyes Breath in deep
Don’t be afraid Everything ends So sing hallelujah We’re all dead anyway Your perfect world’s a fake
You are alive You’re breathing still The liars tell you it’s not the end They’re only dreaming You’ll be joining them soon But I am still here
You are light Just bathed in skin Wait for what the world could give or take my hand And stand with two feet to the ground and say “Fuck you, I’ve seen you And now I understand”
He said “It’s all in your head”
We wait Close your eyes Breath in deep
Don’t be afraid Everything ends So back you lay It was all in your head anyway Your perfect world’s a fake
