were all afraid to try new things
the cops in our brain arrest our entire body
shows us nice shapes and non-intrusive colors
and pleasing design
were afraid to assault the eye
run for the hills, for its the challenges of life
of mindful expansion
of sight to the blind
of love to all forsaken such as my friends and i
of love to all forsaken such as my friends and i
we are afraid to try new things
to dip our toes in the soup we assume is lava
we are way too young and thats our curse toward the familiar
for if we were immortal, nothing would scare us at all
run for the hills, for its the obscured and foreign
the different perspectives
and the ones that were erased
the words of all who left us for the sand and the space
the findings of their journals, of the lines that remain on their face
we are afraid to try new things
poisoned in the heart and driven mad by shame
our helpless learned and our frivolousness rampant
when all good is lost we look for someone beneath us to blame
