We wait

Close your eyes

Breathe in deep

We’ve met before

Your empty wall

No proof you ever existed

Paint your shadow if it brings you some small comfort

“I am still here”

The man who stood

Above the world

Learnt to fail

Is not to fall

Returns with two feet to the ground to say

“Fuck you, I’ve seen you

And you are very small”

“Be at peace”

He said – It’s all in your head

We wait

Close your eyes

Breath in deep

Don’t be afraid

Everything ends

So sing hallelujah

We’re all dead anyway

Your perfect world’s a fake

You are alive

You’re breathing still

The liars tell you it’s not the end

They’re only dreaming

You’ll be joining them soon

But I am still here

You are light

Just bathed in skin

Wait for what the world could give or take my hand

And stand with two feet to the ground and say

“Fuck you, I’ve seen you

And now I understand”

He said

“It’s all in your head”

We wait

Close your eyes

Breath in deep

Don’t be afraid

Everything ends

So back you lay

It was all in your head anyway

Your perfect world’s a fake
