Genesis 02:57
Your life starts at noon The time where your mother cries. Wake us up and let us go Like Kings down to Bethlehem. Call us waiting down the aisle. We’ll be praying, waiting for a while. You are there to meet the ends. Genesis in our hands. Hopes arise and follow through A breeze through the wicked strife. Now here you are, you make us see It’s you we revolve around. Call us waiting down the aisle. We’ll be praying, waiting for a while. You are there to meet the ends. Genesis in our hands.

Phosphene 03:42
Hold me, break me. Solemnly pray for safety In these old rags of mine. Take my hand, hold my breath It’s in my lungs, you’re in my head. Now you’re in my bed. I see you in shades which will run out. The only thing you do is fill my doubts.¬ Fill my heart up with your gaze. Make it start to forget all it needs.¬¬¬ Call me up and face the truth. Coloured eyes, distorted youth. Soaring weightless, Searching for comfort in this, Way beyond space and time. Blurs awaken, Filling my eyes, I’m shaken No more by what has been I see you in shades which will run out. The only thing you do is fill my doubt.¬ Fill my heart up with your gaze. Make it start to forget all it needs.¬¬¬ Call me up and face the truth. Coloured eyes, distorted youth.
