Oberon Pink - WIDE OPEN SKY

So I see you want your ceiling back
Tried the wide open sky
But you can't deal with that
Kinda tiring to rewire what you feel, in fact
And once the seal is cracked
And it gets real abstract
With no-one left to distract
From the emptiness
You'll get envious
Dig deep, and soon
You'll reach weakness
And I keep preaching that sweetness
Sleep, dreaming and speechless
And I bleed, breaching that borderline
Love, I do it all the time
At least these days
Leave the beast unfazed
Just let it go to waste
Our steps retraced
Another brat gets raised
On mediocre praise
When will we mend our ways?
So I see you wanna conceal your face
From the wide open sky
Deleting every trace
Throwing yourself into the wild
From the warm embrace
Start living out of place
We're gaining ground apace
Double-counting your contributions
Squandering souls
Pathways riven with holes
Burying broken bones and pointless goals
Take a leaf out of my book of spells
No-one else here can fucking tell
Might as well make a home in hell
Either here or a padded cell
Higher up or delightful lows
Iron sights when the fortune rolls
Time to swim up against the shoal
Time to give it back, all you stole
Time to make your reflection whole
How d'you keep your bright eyes so closed?
I'm wired, and wide awake
I won't fold, let's go
Yeah, but we all know that you'll never go
Yeah
So I see you want your ceiling back
Tried the wide open sky
But you can't deal with that
Kinda tiring to rewire what you feel, in fact
And once the seal is cracked
And it gets real abstract
No-one left to distract
From the emptiness
You'll get envious
Dig deep, and soon
You'll reach weakness
And I keep preaching that sweetness
Sleep, dreaming and speechless
And I bleed, breaching that borderline
Love, I do it all the time
At least these days
Leave the beast unfazed
Just let it go to waste
Our steps retraced
Another brat gets raised
On mediocre praise
When will we mend our ways?
