Still - LooM

Is this not the same as we pictured?

Is this not the same frame we filled?

Is this not the life that we wanted?

Is this not the life we foretold?

We are now the image, we are now the print

We are now the sum of red, green and blue

The rocking chair still sways when you’re not there

And offers no help in projecting yourself in RGB on the wide screen

You must do that yourself

Tear yourself in two and watch it as you go your separate ways

And lean away and watch the disarray as it defines you

Why would we stop now that we’re in motion?

It’s cost us everything to build our lives beneath the ocean

And we don’t need to breathe to reap the benefits of losing sleep

You need less than you think

We’ve set fire to the alternatives, buried our past behind us

Is this not the same as we pictured?

Is this not the same frame we filled?

Is this not the life that we wanted?

Is this not the life we foretold?

We are now the image, we are now the print

We are now the sum of red, green and blue

Still, the sun sprays intention.

Still, the water breathes invention

And we dig with curiosity

Still, the sun sprays intention.

Still, the water breathes invention

And we dig with curiosity.

Still.

Still

And we dig with curiosity.

Tearing open lives that stow away

We sought them out and made them real, we made them real

We lean away and watch the disarray as it defines you

Why would we stop now that we’re in motion?

It’s cost us everything to build our lives beneath the ocean

And we don’t need to breathe to reap the benefits of losing sleep

You need less than you think.

You need less than you think
