 Introspection

 

Thoughts. Reflections of the soul projected outwards through the lens of us. What makes us think how we do. It becomes second nature, how we think.

 Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and dull
And cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my skull
At night, I wake up with the sheets soakin' wet
And a freight train runnin' through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire
 

Thoughts.

 Thoughts are funny. They are something we do every waking secnond. What shapes them. Interactions, people around us, people who shape, polish and define our lens through which we project everything we see and we do. What does it mean to be a person. How much is us, how much is what people around us shape.

 

 

I had a house up on a hill, with a little garden and all the frills
and darling, you never came 
I had a train right on the track, now it's gone not coming back 
Should be quite a shame 
So take my house, take my river, 
take my bread, all but a sliver 
Darling, don't take my name 
Who you think you're running to? 
Heart's gone empty, why don't you just throw it away? 
Cause I'm gone…beyond the fray 
I took my time, did my duty, wanted you to see the beauty, 
lover, you got in my way 
You think you're god's gift to man, but next to me you couldn't stand 
to be seen so afraid 
So take my house, take my river, 
take my bread, all but a sliver 
Darling, don't take my name 
Take my bills, take my dryer, 
take my dishes if you're dire 
and burn 'em all, upon a pyre 
and lover, don't take my name 
Who you think you're running to? 
Heart's gone empty, means nothing to you if I don't stay
Cause I'm gone…beyond the fray 
Now I'm gone beyond the fray
