Stall from Consciousness: Epiphony by Jackson May

If I could see my reflection (in your eyes)
Cure my misdirection (in your eyes)
Yet they’re averted from my gaze
The message lost

Tell me what it is you want now (no more lies)
No more hinting at your point how (no more lies)
I know your messages, but how much do you believe them?
Do you see this like I do?

Cause all we do is try to stall
And every time we walk in circles trying not to fall
Spinning round to find out where it ends
Oh, why must we pretend?

It’s floating to the surface slow (in your eyes)
All the feelings I'm afraid to show (in your eyes)
Yet denial twists the message, crumpling up the paper
And it’s gone

I’ve nothing left to prove to you (no more lies)
Blind to all that I have tried to do (no more lies)
Wasting time on words that fail to reach your ears
Yet I’m still talking now, and you don’t hear a word

All my pain is shoved between the cracks
I know that I should run, but I know that I’d look back
Glances words and forms
Churning in the storm
Yet the bitter taste, it keeps me sober now

Words well up inside my heart
Burst the seams and tear apart
Scream inside me asking why
“Why won’t these words just hang and die?”

Cause all I do is try to stall
And every time I walk in circles trying not to fall
Tripping over messages we send
Oh, why must we pretend?
