REM(nants) Lyrics

Lost imprints, vague memories
How to recall vanishing deeds?
No clear recollection
A void to lose oneself
At the verge of falling
On a sublevel of coma
to stay there evermore

On the threshold of sleep
The blurring lines
Of conscious and unconscious
The mind takes reign

Abused, stiff, silent
Nurturing seeds of torment
These fragments of bitter defiance
Degrade as blistering fear swarms in perfect harmony
Flowing across a tense neural stream

Total darkness becomes a canvas
For a photismic masterpiece
Painted by the deep subconscious
Born in the twilight of waking

False sentence
Mutilated hopes of serenity
Shatter every instant
Ambiguous thoughts detonating

Total darkness becomes a canvas
For a photismic masterpiece
Painted by the deep subconscious
Born in the twilight of waking

Simple shapes become the pattern
From mist to vividness

From mist to vividness
Simple shapes become pattern
Patterns become form
Sights familiar yet unexplored

This synaptic euphoria
Then infused and immune
Foreshadows defunct creations
Oncoming enchantment, so distant

Abuse, slip, disappear
Deprivation shed all tears
Tragic visions be bled
A jolting burst
A sensation of falling
Quasi-hallucinogenic peril
A portal to the mind's eye
