Octopus on Fire

Right now, in the heat of my head

A flower blooms that was already dead

December's long gone

But these fields are forever frozen

And everything she said

Burns in the back of my head

Quick-sands of silver

Under dreams still glittering goldenAll along I sing this song

It runs wild like a river inside

A voice cries out sharp words of doubt

If I take them to heart they make me bleed

Everyday my attention strays

Light like life it fades away

The clock it ticks

I turn my back

I feel the surface bulge and crack...Tick tick tock tick tock tick tick tick tock tick tock tickSLAM!

I want the change

I feel the changeThen post-metamorphosis where do the answers lie

One above and one below with lions locked insideThen in silence turn the key

Setting all those lions freeThen I hold my head up higher and higher

Reach out tentacles to every desire

I faced the sea and it's time for a change

I am an octopus in flamesSinking underwater

Sweating boiling getting hotter

Bubbles burst between my fingers

My breath is cracked and drawn

Sinking like an anvil

And facing several tentacles

My eyes go black and pop red cherries

The surface me is gone

Gone

I'm gone

Gone

I'm goneI'm mesmerized - a servant to the light I can't deny it

With everyone standing here

I'm a million miles away

A change
