lyrics

The feeling makes itself known without wearing words
but we have to say something someday, we can't just navigate
following breadcrumbs and birds, our assumptions
we could get lost in all those curves, all the things gone unsaid
so...find the well spring
compass needle trembling from the force with which you are searching
look for the shallow pool, but it runs deeper
than you ever would imagine when you first become the seeker
You'll be thirsty. Inner worlds, uninterrupted plains of false stability
there are cliffs and valleys that will surprise you
all that beautiful danger you never knew was there inside you, just waiting

When lost we need the birds eye view to show us where we are
but that means learning how to see through eyes not our own
the shape-shifting is empathy and means the destruction
of the self that wants to be back on the ground just stuck in safe skin
Don't bury me in that early grave of vanity, of petty jealousy
that's a shallow puddle you could drown in
and your own reflection will pull you right in
I see you struggling, you could stand up and walk out
if you could only see
you're in a shallow puddle, and those undertows are illusory
