séance

there is a poison
inside my soul

long forgotten
demons roam

heavy moods
and walls of fire

formerly put out
now getting wilder

i’m out of control

a stranger to myself

i used to be me

now someone else

you used to know me

i’ve vanished to get lost

there is a monster
always been here

inside of myself
like everywhere else

i sought to know it
i caught its name

I faced its mask
and shook its hand

i’m out of control

a stranger to myself

i used to be me

now someone else

you used to know me

i’ve vanished to get lost

i’m still familiar
with my true goal

so much suppressed
by my anxiety

i tempted myself
to let go of it

but my soul remembers
and tries to get hold of it
…again

is there a gleam of hope?

is there a way to get back on track?

i’m out of control

a stranger to myself

i used to be me

now someone else

you used to know me

i’ve vanished to be found
