Dead Momentum

Embracing the impact
I don’t feel the fall
When I travel at full speed
Into an emotionless wall

I’m hanging on its surface
Trying to get you to know
No matter how I try to get through to you
I’m still on my side after all

Listen, I’m not sure what you’re asking of me
Or what you want me to say
I don’t want to fight you over semantics
Or for not doing things your way

My eyes well up in moments
...in which the feelings are not my own
Torn at every angle
My only thought is home

I’m banging on its surface
Trying to get you to know
No matter how I try to get through to you
I’m still on my side after all

Somber from your pessimisticide
And not sure how else I could have tried
How can I use your power
...to save the silent masses from your wrath?
I’m straying from the map I’ve drawn
...and fear for those who envy you
...the apprenti lost in your path
