Brick by brick,
You watch it fall,
You are confused,
Cause it feels like you’re falling apart.
Brick by brick,
You come undone,
And you are struggling to shout,
It sounds like your mike cut out.
Brick by brick,
You watch it all,
And in a moment in time,
You see a flash and you realize,
There’s something new coming about,
It’s sad you never saw that all along.
**************
did you lose yourself when it killed you slow?
did you lose yourself when they let you go?
did you have nothing else in the world when you lost it all?
were you standing in the desert?
were you lost in the wind?
was your world blue and gray and the smoke was all you could you breathe?
i took a deep tumble,
i took a shower in the pain,
and it asked me stay,
as if I had a choice.
It was all I could feel.
when did you realize that it bathed you?
when did you finally see that you were clean?
and the pain that chained you to stay washed you free?
so did you lose it all when it all went up in the sky ?
or did you finally notice that the smoke had to blind your gaze?
so you can look clearly and see,
that the world was never what it seemed.
**********
And what seemed like a turmoil of work
is now disappeared, faded and now is a needle in a haystack
What we couldn’t stare at, is all we are looking for now
High above the clouds, knowing my feet will touch the ground
Laying above the waters, my dreams are floating away
I can finally see that maybe when I am falling apart
I am actually falling into a greater capacity to be me, to be beautiful.
