Greater than Oz

I need a miracle

We all need miracles

I try to relate

but the sight of my faith

has them running

how long have I been gunning

to be your friend

crystal caves made out of sadness

come on in

we are beautiful from the outside

no one knowing our internal ruin

watch your words

watch your step

no means no

yes means yes

how long do I have to play this mental game of chess

two sides to every coin

two faces

joined up within me

who will show up today

the aces

or the spade of three

eradicate, eradicate

destroy, make noise

rebuild, procreate

create an army

made of boys

my soul is lit

like a candle

my moments dissipate into the universe

instead of staying on the mantle

I want to be okay

but that's not in the cards for me

the mundane is dark

the light I seek

peek through the curtain

greater than Oz I see

greater than Oz I see

Fresh

Start over

f r e s h

like a white bird in the sky

nothing can hold me down,

I am a swan

nothing can hold me back, 

I am my own wand

I will make magic happen

It will be plain to see

I am living my destiny

right now? holy cow,

I can't breathe

Yes,

you can

you can see

See yourself for who you really are

and be

f r e e

Chained

Chained, twelve feet deep

all I can see is me

trapped in the water, struggling

I just want to be free

Face the sun

I'm on the shore

Whatever you say to me won't come through

I'm starting to realize,

I'm losing you

We felt we were fenced in

though we knew the lock

always in mesmerization

though we knew the block

I can't find you, it's 7am

Where'd you kick off to?

Worries spread like protozoa

they bred and spread so fast

like animals with Noah

Don't say the same of cancer cells

We invited Them to kill us
