Wrong Side of Heaven
welcome to my reality
who’s reality of their self falters at the drop of a hat
the sudden tantalizing change is surely overwhelming
it’s at the point where I’ve been on the moon so long
the law of gravity doesn’t apply to me
only when my eyes glaze over and the fall is accelerating
do I decide to feel the weight carried by my feet
the uneasy awareness of my senses has caused my body to deem them unnecessary
i’m used to my uncertainty, but the earth’s endless divides are a whole nother planet to me
my sun doesn’t shine but her orbit strongly pulls me
she convinces me I’m unlike anyone you’ll ever meet
though I am everyone you’ve ever seen
i do not care to know about people, places, or things
all I’ve ever understood is the need to experience what would happen if someone entered my galaxy
and admire every action like I’d change the course of history
i have a fire brewing, but in the shadows the flame goes untouched
i’d rather you burn your hand on the match for me
