Return Journey

[Verse 1] I raise my hands to my face, Light falls back into my weight. My breath finds skin and time, Consciousness returns to physicality. The images dissolve gently and quietly, Because now I want to feel again. No dream, no flight, no distant place – I am here. And I am leaving. [Pre-Chorus] The depth still echoes within me, but I remain awake, but I remain awake. [Chorus] I go to the door and step through, leaving behind what was greater. One step is enough, the threshold calls, from another world to the present. I go back, but not lost, only newly connected, newly born. [Verse 2] An empty room now welcomes me, no image, no name, nothing to do. Here the strangeness falls away from me, no advice, no call, no judgement. I stand in nothingness and remain, learning to see myself again. No role, no story anymore, only I am and nothing else is difficult. [Pre-Chorus] In the space between, it becomes clear and pure, who I am without pretence. [Chorus] I go to the door and step through, leaving behind what was greater. One step is enough, the threshold calls, from another world to the present. I go back, but not lost, only newly connected, newly born. [Bridge] Consciousness gathers in the now, no starlight to set me down. The body calls, the world grows loud, reality becomes familiar to me. [Final chorus] I stand in the space of reality, with heart, with breath, with weight. The otherworld remains part of me, but it does not lead me away from here. [Outro] The way back does not end in falling, but in walking through everyday life.
