Through The Aether Lyrics

And it's our time to fill in all the blanks again

Another day wasted away

A failed attempt at being something

We want to be

Something more than our mothers were

A little less than our fathers wanted

Under dark of night

We hold on tight

To what was always known was staring us down through the aether

Veiled specters of a haunted past be gone

Life is death is life

Losing one leaves none

Through eyes of clay we lose, we stay

Of flesh and bone we drown alone

Recount carnal fears, all past frontiers

My false pedigree, life beyond gentry

My lucid self left on the shelf amongst the clutter

A lone heart left to sputter out

The struggle is in the expression of life and living

I'm running astride a dead ringer

Doppelgänger

But I'm not losing steam

I found a way to stop hating myself

To look in the mirror without disgust
