The Inner Stream Remains - Heaven's Cry

Been so hard, to keep my soul alive

The essence of my whole being misplaced

Replaced

Just like a curse, a shadow of a beast

A seed sown in my mind

A machine eating me inside

But I couldn’t resign

I tried to leave the lie, fell into denial

And then built a shield around waiting inside to be found

My spirit locked in a shell

(as you’re trapped in one as well?)

Trying to reach the highest state

Carried by the inner stream remains

Peace, I cannot set my mind in peace

There’s always something here that drives you down

Lost sanity, my spiritual life in decay

You can’t lead it all alone

And cannot always choose with whom you deal

In this circus of mindless crooks at play

They took us all for fools, handcuffed to a dying root

Cannot move outside their rules, couldn’t find my way back to you

Now they want us crucified

(hoping you won’t even try?)

Just reaching higher planes, carried by the inner stream remains
