Oberon Pink - QUICKSILVER

Quick change
And I flip names on them
Transform and unzip pain
And I strip to the waist
Try to quit blaming them
Pulling on a brand new face
Wash stains away
And I'm re-weighing
What I'm worth
Feet flailing in dirt
Bursting out of my seams
Losing my limbs in the stream
Heed the beat to my re-rebirth
Set a reminder
Wake up in time
Swimming in the river
Till it turns to wine
Keeping our fingertips intertwined
Little bit of quicksilver
We shine
Creeping in the back door
Fuck that climb
Spin direction
Right round on a dime
Carve a path
You can't wait for a sign
Can't just live your whole life online
I'm indivisible now
My shadow and I are
Near visible now
And I spent a lifetime
Aligned on one side
Of the glass, looking out
There's no past insurmountable
Stand up, be counted
Stand up, be
Stand up, be counted
Push out the walls
Spit out your words
Make yourself heard
Make sure it hurts
'Cause we've been running
On empty too long
Engine ticking
But inertia's too strong
Never had to hold a weapon
But I'm old enough
I should have learned my lesson
Careening forward
No question
But when the waves hit
We count blessings
We got so full
That we overflowed
Only chance we had another road
And we never even tried
To break down the code
Never really thinking
'Bout who and what was owed
Till our eyes turned to polygons
We were burning all along
Never righting our wrongs
We had everyone singing the same song
I'm indivisible now
My shadow and I are
Near visible now
And I spent a lifetime
A lifetime
Aligned on one side
Of the glass, looking out
There's no past insurmountable
Stand up, be counted
Stand up, be
Stand up, be counted
