I've lingered for far too long
In the shallows of this water
(A body, cold and constant)
(Embraces the gift of a daughter)
To be wrapped in the arms of a tormenting giant
She is carried with an air of relentless defiance
Defiance
Beautiful beyond comparison
Her lungs embrace the toxic air
Knowing this, she
She takes a breath
Beautiful beyond comparison
The experience of reality
To her, was a formality
Engendered as the giant's gift
She damned the waters and slowed our drift
What can we learn from the remains of a goddess?
We must change the pattern before
We
We become
We become godless
We become godless
We must change our pattern
Interrupt this flux that
Connects the complexities
Learn to uncover the secrets in subtleties
Beautiful beyond comparison
Her lungs embrace the toxic air
Knowing this, she
She takes a breath
Begging for her chemical rest
(A body, cold and constant)
Embraces
(The gift of a daughter)
Embraces
(The gift of a daughter)
A body, cold and constant
(The gift of a daughter)
Embraces
The gift of a daughter
