Creaking
The house is speaking
Sediment seeping in while I'm sleeping
Weighing my body down
Fusing me to the ground
Just before you drift off
Just before you die
Right before the veil lifts
Your body begins to cry
Releasing ether into the air
Disintegrating through tides
Rippling into being
Everything else is a lie
Nothing
We are all nothing
Sleeping specters in a paradox
Dreaming our life with our careless thoughts
(background noise)
Our bodies cry ether into the air
We dream up these lives without a care
So our egos ripple into states of despair
Cause we can't latch to water
We're vapor condensing to feel alive
We manifest merchants to sell us lies
(tuned background noise)
