Lyrics:
Small world filled with true lies
Sore eyes
I’m walking in blind what it feel like
In the thick of night
Loose ties I cut for my life
Two times I’m up, I’m alright, what you living like?
In the thick of night

Before I’m blinking
I watch the world turn trying to soak up
All the things I never understood
I needed closure
And all the bad and good that’s in my blood
Is just an overview to making sense of all I am
I’m feeling closer
To blacken out the sun again before the day is over
Stood up in the rain
Staring at the face of phobia
I feel it in my veins when that leverage control you
So tonight we living twice
For my brothers in the solar
The night ate me whole but fuelled my hunger by the sunrise
And I got more soul
For the low it probably well timed
Live it so, live it true, or live a lie
Back when we was burning bush waiting for a sign
(waiting for a sign now)

Till then I let my spirit be the guide
I see purpose in a second but lost if it ain’t defined
Loosing sleep over some purpose feeling limited by time
Hope there’s purpose in this moment or at least one of these lines

In this

Small world filled with true lies
Sore eyes
I’m walking in blind what it feel like
In the thick of night
Loose ties I cut for my life
Two times I’m up, I’m alright, what you living like?
In the thick of night

I feel it when a baby born grows
And a mother’s eyes weep
Through the summer turn snow
Whatever might be
I feel purpose in soul feel it burn inside me
When my brothers live and prove all the things they couldn’t see but
Maybe that’s just how it goes when you walk un-treaded road
Separate ways I couldn’t go
Faces I no longer know
Wonder why I feel alone?
Maybe you could feel my lows
if I make the speaker bleed while the sun is rising slow
Cos love and hate a similar mould
We was misguided then but were never told
And there’s bigger things than I see
And all that we confined too
Dip your skin in high sea then lie up on the mildew
Thats when its high-key and the rush is feeling brand new
And the day is feeling so young
It’s a blank page of a haiku
See the danger in the nature of a wager of the truth
I feel purpose when I let these feelings move

Small world filled with true lies
Sore eyes
I’m walking in blind what it feel like
In the thick of night
Loose ties I cut for my life
Two times I’m up, I’m alright, what you living like?
In the thick of night

Wrong time when you still up on my mind
See you when the sunrise when its time
Nothing left, but so what.
That’s enough.
