Oh, Fly with me upon the rainbow that slips into you and haunts your dreams Oh, Fly with me on a desert wind to nowhere but a nosebleed. In a desperate hope, in a desperate place the pills go, go Top shelf to the left on your medicine cabinet you never saw it comin' til the light left your eyes You push your hands through the powder snow that covers you up in your lies it grew too cold for your spirit here til the light left your eyes Oh, Sweetheart where have you gone that's so far? Were you watching the crystalline sunset? Or melting the walls in your head? Or simply trying to feel nothing at all, nothing at all In a desperate hope, in a desperate place the pills go, go Top shelf to the left on your medicine cabinet you never saw it comin' til the light left your eyes You push your hands through the powder snow that covers you up in your lies it grew too cold for your spirit here til the light left your eyes When you can no longer feel the slender grooves of your polymer casket Fingers numb to all but the pains of waking each day A thunderous wailing shall echo from the end of the cavern; beckoning you to the light. Blindly you'll follow, until you leave it behind one last time.

Medusa 07:32
I want to forget the rift whose lands prior fell after your feet, the bridges your hands ran ragged to move across them, and the wounds; the skin you tugged and pulled. And the flesh you've tasted as you enticed me with that biting serpent that you've woven deep into my skin. I feel every drop of lymph drawn from my flesh. A conjugal feeding with yellow teeth, spiraling deep within me. The ashes are free; they dance in the air like sawdust flayed from meager boards. And you buried me deep in an urn, beneath your sorrows; where time stands still and the dew drops grow hollow. As you enticed me with the biting serpent that you've woven deeply into me

The Grey 05:52
Walking the street under a blushing sky the trees I colored nauseous green They reach into me and swipe their shade This night; a tingling in the toes a scratching... Within my chest the air leaves and I awaken to nothing, to nothing. A storm takes me; its doting arms caress my hair in cyclonic waves chilling each bone until my skin gives way tired eyes tightly gripping and fingers slipping away Its fervor; disparate and grey is not a home but a seal of my eternal resting place. On the run, or circling the drain.

Passed into the grave of sleep pulled forth and buried my sunshine far from bloodshot eyes that seized and rolled away A white-soaked sheet set half gone Dirty fingers thrown against the wall By the hair the head comes off Repose and disfigure the doll And I never said yes. I never said yes to this. The crackling of a distant flame Like teeth through bone Skin that suffocates When all of my Earth is screaming A white-soaked sheet set half gone Dirty fingers thrown against the wall By the hair the head comes off Repose and disfigure the doll. And I never said yes. I never said yes to this.

about

Gossamer is an exploration of the pain and grief within us all. Trauma, abuse, fear, ennui, and our powerlessness to our own perceptions inform the long and winding passages therein.
