about

Just a little diddy about conciousness/the nature of being. Like, what even are you?

lyrics

I can see now that I can't get any closer
I can see clearly through the rain
sweet earth drifting up
dim light breaking in
soft touch on my face
it's not what I'm calling it at all

I can see now that I can't get any closer
it was always what I was
chest moves, things change
it grows, it wanes
a thunderclap, a windowpane
it's not what I'm calling it at all

the way that you're feeling now this isn't it
it's what it's happening on
what it's happening in

the way that I'm feeling now could never last
and why should I need it to
isn't it enough to feel it
moving through me

the way that you're feeling now is just a hit
and it's not just anything at all

I can see now that I can't get any closer
I'm already here and gone
bodies age, leaves decay
spring returns, suns rays
hot birth, cold remains
it's not what I'm calling it at all
