lyrics

I can understand the privilege we afford to the eye
you can’t close your ear, but you can close your mind
do away with perception, remove the tether that taught
i can feel something that i maybe haven’t felt before

It stole my breath, for i let it.

every single bone inside your body
put it in a bag no longer breathing
to the ether
no more. no thing.

when you are there and not there, silence reverberates
it slides beneath your skin and it causes earthquakes
now i’m kneeling before you humble with head hung low
i found my way back with the footprints that i left in snow

It stole my breath
(all your senses are lying to you daily)
for I let it
(and i not let experience dictate me)
It stole my breath
(walking to towards the ether so slowly)
for I let it
(and now i’m ready for the Lord to crush me)

Every single cell inside your body
Put it in a bag no longer breathing
To the ether
no more. no thing.
