Elevation

I wander in the high plains
An ambiguity
Everything is the same, by the summer haze
Waves of tall grass blown
Wind wants to be seen
Back and forth it's thrown, resistance not shown
Bright sun shares its light
To see what we are
Burning in the sky, everyone run and hide
I inherit some other's weight
Don't go very far
Lie in the high plains, here there is no shade

Rest on the soft earth, soak up the warm rays
Let the wind blow gently across my face
May I fall asleep under the sunlight
Awake with clear mind under the moonlight
Under a starlit universe of mine
Thoughts turn to scope of unlimited size
Escape from meaningless trivial things
I am in wonder of my surroundings

Mirror

My love for you will never die
It causes me to rot inside
I sit around and wait for an answer
Want festers – it grows like a cancer

All my life I've walked alone
An empty strength; the seeds were sown
Feelings long dormant now become active
Heart begins burning – eaten by acids

Upon myself I place the debt
Upon myself I place the debt

Did this really happen or am I mistaken?
I walked next to you and you seemed shaken?
A tangible feeling radiated from you?
Could it be – you hurt inside too?

I find it hard to look into your eyes
This is a shame, but not a surprise
We're both self-conscious: now it's clearer
Looking at you is like looking in the mirror

Upon myself I place the debt
Upon myself I place the debt
