Testo An Endless Cycle // I Was More Than The Weight Of My Work

The distance
Between where I am
And where I want to be
Is always the same

Escapism prolonging escape
Circumstantial complacency
Self-destruction becomes
A means of survival
An endless cycle
The futility of
Trying to find the
Difference between
Beginning and ending...


...from the burial plot in the garden
Underneath the ashen oak
I offer one final plea
Mouth filling up with dirt
“I was more than the weight of my work
Thе shadow of a dream deferrеd
The one who feeds you controls you
Did I ever have a choice?"

Close my eyes
None of this is real
Disposable/replaceable <--> Walls closing in
Look within myself <--> Face of wax
Another 40 hours gone <--> This isn't living


Bloodshot eyes
I'm alright <--> I'm on fire
Second job <--> Spread too thin
Still in debt <--> No Way Out
Didn’t eat <--> It's not safe
Fading fast <--> to be alone
Ghosts haunting ghosts
