The Four Owls

It′s never easy, im signing up for healing

Time living's the meaning- just dealing with the leaving

Everybody′s frontin' 'til they crack and start leakingFrom the eyes for... NO! actually, scrap that- A great reason!

Some I knew better than others, now you′re my sky brothers

Say ′What's on?′ to my grandad, visit for a cuppa

He's a funny fucker, the one and only

Used to taunt and take the piss because my clothes were worn and holey

And looking back ain′t the same, but it makes me smile-

So I'll be holding onto that for forever and a while

West Country boy, and this life′s full of styles

Got to get over it, start weak, get strong, fuck denial

And the drugs they're supplying, really ain't reliable-

Come the morning I′m still asking myself ′Why's it true?′

Then the pen to the page, no need for names

I'm sure they all watch me struggle writing this today

Right now I only care about free women-

I just lost one that′s been there from the beginning

Always wish you'd done something when the light′s dimming

Late night, head spinning, wishing you were still living

Then I awoke and remember that it ain't true

A type of emptiness that's hard for me to paint you

It′s something that we all have to go through

I seen it at a young age from a Grim Reapers view

This is just me to you, now he′s feeling it personally

The cycle is the only thing that lives for eternity

Still I'm flipping out see you tryin′ to get the worst from me

Numb with a certainty, fucking up purposely

But what's it earning me? I′m never healing

No words I could speak could ever express this feeling

It's still Peace to the lost, but not forgotten

It′s time for me to heal before my mind turns rotten

Your mind reeling, it's time for healing

Beaten down and physically bleeding

Frustrated, trapped with a low ceiling

Time for healing, it's time for healing

Your mind reeling, it′s time for healing

Beaten down and physically bleeding

Frustrated, trapped with a low ceiling

Time for healing, it′s time for healing

Tears run like rivers on a face you ain't seeing

I′m curled up, spaced out, concealed while I'm grieving

Heart feels hollow, pain barely left it beating

Seeming like it′s broken, feel emotion over reason

Cos- nah I won't see ′em, see- yes I'm soul seeking

Asking why they gotta leave us

Where are they? Am I dreaming?

Holding onto memories developed when they're breathing

Not vessels in the cemetary buried in the deepness

To heavens they′re retreating

I′m teathered to the messages that's headed to your speaker

Tryin′ to get this to the people for the healing they're all needing

When they′re on their knees screaming and bleeding the pain is ceasing

Let it out- it is relieving

Both finding peace when, still, dont do just be

Afterall we're human beings, not human doings

Who all need some healing when death is passed through us

With them hazy eyes, we share pains alike

Day and night, thinking about you I feel the pain in my mind

Looking for that life-line in the night sky

Though patterns twisted, kinda like a tie-dye

Ye, we know that life′s finite, so why try to hide like the pain isn't there

When in hindsight, well, I probably wallowed in it too much

And didn't see who I still had until I grew up

Relate through mistakes, life lessons

Define lifes essence, behind my questions

No easy answers, but infinite suggestions

Stop. Let me hold your weight up while you′re resting

Put aggression to the side, let the shield down

Not time to fight, cos we must heal now

Looking up and its gray, so you feel down

But we gotta live each day, not see ′em out

Your mind reeling, it's time for healing

Beaten down and physically bleeding

Frustrated, trapped with a low ceiling

Time for healing, it′s time for healing

Your mind reeling, it's time for healing

Beaten down and physically bleeding

Frustrated, trapped with a low ceiling

Time for healing, it′s time for healing
