Lyrics The Apparition - Kaddisfly

The Apparition

Pay no mind, the vanguard pressure
No sticks left with which to measure, now
All of our thoughts, once
Liquid and porous, hardened and filled
Shatter into pieces of pride
And love, somehow
Oh.
My.
God
I’m bleeding from the neck again
Oh.
My.
God
Fleeting doves thrown to the wind
To be alive in this chorus
We find our steps play like a verse
That lets lost loved ones shine
And they shine
I hope that we can find another way
To love, dance, discover, now
Oh.
My.
God
I’m bleeding from the neck again
Old bygones
Fleeting doves thrown to the wind
You know we might leave this way
No, we won’t die, not today
Because there is no such thing
Although we will leave this scene
It’s only fragments we see
Just fragments of you and me
To be lost in this second
Is to remove the now
To find our true being
The space between
The shadow of god
The salt of the sea
Oh.
My.
God
I’m bleeding from the neck again
Old bygones
Fleeting doves thrown to the wind
#SecondMovement
I once met a man insane
A dapper gentleman with my name
He said «oh with this life you never know
What’s a seed if it can’t grow?»
We can measure what we’re worth
By all the things we’ve done since birth
But who’s to know when we’re conceived
Or where we’ll go?
You can rule outside
Or you can rule the world within
There’s still and old universe and it rules you
Philosophy’s a nomad
But you’ll be damned if you don’t meet your goals
And hunt down the ghost that haunts us all
#ThirdMovement
You can pick a point in time
And stretch it to infinity
It frames a portrait of our steps
Everything we see
We can’t time the point we pick
That chance is sacred energy
Purpose finds what time forgets
Time forgives what purpose feeds
When the chance is mine to become sound
And stitch in time my offered space
I’ll leave you with heaven’s theft
Everything I’ve faced
It’s easier to look behind
To light already passed away
Recollection of our steps
The outline of our minds in space
I swear
I swear
I swear
When the chance is mine to become sound
And stitch in time my offered space
I’ll leave you with heaven’s theft
Everything I’ve faced
When we finally fall to the ground
And cut all ties with gravity
The earth remembers every step
Everything in threes
It’s easier to fall in love
And throw everything else away
I’ll remember every step
Everything
I swear
