fallen leaves and zebra prints

Raven's Revenge

I'm hiding behind every wall I can find
And your vision won't see through it now
Yell out my name and see what happens
Nothing
Echoes
Endlessly repeating itself
Your own voices drowning you out
As you catch a glimpse of me jumping off the cliff
Disappearing behind the purple clouds you never got ahold of
Disappearing into the realm you can't see
Can't enter
I'm flying off into the moonlight
Screaming every name until I lose my fucking voice
The walls won't close in
But it's getting to the point where it's either death or disassociation
Because this frame won't hold me
This frame won't know me like you do
Or do you ?
Do you know anything?
I can hear you screaming louder than me
But it'll never mean the same as anything I'll say
The louder you go the blurier I get
Till you're repeating the same thing
And I'm off again in the distance
The cliff won't be the end of me
But I'm better off with than without
Or without than with if the with is without the light I know
I can hear you falling
But trust me, I'm falling faster
And when you see me again
You'll never really see me again
This wall of smoke won't hold you forever
But it's the only comfort I feel
Burning all your trees down
Till I'm the only one left standing
Holding a leaf in the palm of my hand
Choking the life out of it
Sucking the energy out and flying again
Till all you can hear is my name
My voice
This isn't about what you think it's about
This is a different set of contradictions
But I'm here, back here
Not leaving this time
Until I suddenly disappear again
Never to be seen by you or anyone else
Till I feel like it
Till I get pulled back
Till I have to do this every single time
Till you get the damn message
