1. Caught
Captivated by your prayer
Captivated by your prayer
anything and everything comes back to you... mysteries
2. Beginning and end, interwoven
Interweaving Interwoven
Interweaving Interwoven
Interweaving Interwoven
Interweaving Interwoven
Beginning and end
Beginning and end
Interweaving Interwoven
Beginning and end
I like it in there
Interweaving Interwoven
Interweaving Interwoven
A beginning and end
Because I like living there
3. Surrounded by you
Surrounded by dreams, all around me
So many, unnecessary...
Surrounded by dreams, even though I do not wish
So different from always
Ah, why?
What is different?
How is it different? So different
Surrounded by you, all around me
Everyone becomes you, all around me
To be this together with the universe
Always Always Always
4. My friend
Inside my head, You are You are You are You are You are
A secret name, You run around and around
Inside my head Unseen Unseen
Wings called You lure me out
I won't go in that direction......
5. Secretly
Reflections teach me
This secret that will not be revealed again
Secretly
6. The active voice revealed
Humiliation set up
Now I remember it again
The real self, I shouldn't have wanted to know
The border between myself and now, Overthrown
Showered with betrayals
By going on living, Fuck fate!
I am not afraid of it
7. In between
It overflows from within me
The joy that should have been you
It had stolen inside
Which way? Which way? The reflections look the same
Just as though I possessed completely the radiant glory
My heart is filled and overflows with joy
Because I made sure that I expect nothing
In between, between me and something like me
in between, again
8. Different
A gentle
Completely, Flowed out from within me
Like something that is familiar with my insides
Echo, like a whisper
But nothing is changed
More More More like something different
More different, Different Different Different Different Different
Different Different Different Different Different
9. Even one
It's happening happening Thing
It wants something to catch it...
Even things that cannot move by themselves
It's happening
Already
Even just one, hoped for
Loading in forms
The voice of a person who want to become one
But birthed within time
here is HERE
10. As it is now
Eternally Eternally Eternally
As it is now, As it is now
Eternally Eternally Eternally
As it is now, As it is now
Eternally Eternally Eternally
You too, Me too, You too, You too, You too
11. To excess
Too much......
To excess
Because an excess of meaning
Too much, enfolds me
Too much
I am looking at myself
