Falling Away from Cope Money by Wool See

Miles dark
Off in it I can hear coyotes bark
And howl under silent stars
Not guided by them
Much as I am taunted
Running the gauntlet
Sun starts to rise
On the walls red from
Iron oxides
Cash me outside
How did I get here?
Let’s philosophize
Standing on fossils
And fossils tell time
Not talking watches
Deposits of lime
I am in awesomeness
Mostly sublime
Hunger creeps in and the homesickness pines
I just keep going 'cuz going's the line
From point A to point B where hope still resides
Out in society, all of its size
I can be someone with something that drives
I can just blend in if I need to hide
But out here there’s creatures evolved more than I
The venom, the teeth
And those claws and those eyes
From a vantage point, element of surprise
Endless cover from behind which to strike
Behind that brush could be a brush with death
I do not trust the shrubs I intersect
Ankles stinging from rocks shifting when stepped on
Time melts, each hour drips into next

Falling away
Falling away
Falling away
Falling away
Falling away
Falling away
not all of it though not all the way

Aye how fresh are those tracks
I hoped about mine someday they would ask
This is a different use of those semantics
Sizable imprint, evoking a panic
I can’t do nothing but keep on this path
No Peeping a map
It's not an option
I was not issued one
I know topography perilous when it’s front of me
In this case surrounding me
Grandness in pano
This majesty bountifully
Provided by you tell me?
Determine empirically
You have the time
Away from distractions and noise of your kind
Cries and their crimes
You’ve been victimized
Inflicted harm too
Rationalized
Stole rations and lied
while being lied to by those designated to lead
What to believe
Who to trust
Authority truly nuts
Compassion what will save us
Complacency what keeps shut
Access to what we need
Access to what we need
Don’t listen to me
I'm on drugs

I’m just on this mountain peak
Yesterday it was green
Before that it was aspen trees
Now it’s the color of heat
I keep walking

Falling away
Falling away
Falling away
Falling away
Falling away
Falling away
Falling away, not all the way


I still remember
I still remember
I can do better
I can do better
All I know is I can't keep quiet
All I know is I can't keep quiet
All I know is I'm not fixed
All I know is I'm not fixed
All I know is I can't keep quiet
And that's progress
