Lyrics Fractures – Withhold
Text:
Time for reason
Calm and calculate
Something’s out of reach
Something’s out of place
Search for feeling
Find the right words to replace
Not everything has a meaning
Not everything can be feigned
Find the right words to replace
Not everything has a meaning
Not everything can be feigned
Cheeks are stretched abroad
Form the shape: a crooked smile
Only contact to relate
To replace what’s lost inside
It forms in the contact
It needs to be told
I’m all out of context
I’m stuck in one mode
It forms in the contact
Don’t mean to withhold
It’s something so complex
Something unknown
Collect the pieces that I’ve found
Assemble a structure to house them in
This forced perspective will dissolve
Resembles starch and emptiness
Concentrate, calm the senses
Pause for impact, pause to figure out
Collate all emotion, drop defences
Find the problem
No, can’t force it out
Can’t find reaction
Can’t feel a thing
