Dissonant

Whoever, whatever
Behold, a frown upon their forehead
Ever muse over what triggered their reaction?
Are they only confused, vexed?
Why is it that we never ask?
Are we only too afraid of the answer?

The world has become dissonant
This depressing haze is my insolence
Never amused, I place myself soft spoken
Shivering down, so alert I can’t awaken

Are we just dreaming?
Always searching for the answers but nothing is found.
Just fall away again.

Slangs ringing in monotone
I bite my tongue
What fascinating creatures we are
Wicked when we’re raw

Living for the next wave of pleasure
Leather candle wink dissipates as we weather

We desire but it’s filthy
Throwing your logic away
Your hands so guilty
I pray to not sway

Where does the everlasting fruit lie?
Only knowing that we’ll die
Screaming out of cue
Is that myself talking or is it you?
I don’t understand what’s happening to me
Dear God, I perceive but I cannot see

Are we just dreaming?
Always searching for the answers but nothing is found.
Just fall away again.
The sun is beaming through my chest
Warming my body, lifting my soul

Dear, what is my next step?
Are we all caffeine bent?
Are we all confused?
Lost sheep?

Our idiosyncrasies
Lament hypocrisy

I tried to love what the world intimately holds
Only to grieve an empty soul

Are we just dreaming?
Always searching for the answers but nothing is found.
Just fall away again.
The sun is beaming through my chest
Warming my body, lifting my soul
My heart I have feared
Dare I say, Jehovah, may I rest here?
