Mind Traveler (redux)

[Verse - male singer] Slipping in and out of your locality A veiled shadow — man gone hollow Back and forth through a new reality Cannot follow — deep, hope swallowed Peek around the corner, what do you see? Another glimpse of space where I could be [Pre-Chorus - female singer] You stayed behind Something in my chest must’ve thought of this To search and find A doorway to return — wish that I could rest Am I drifting away? …forever-ever-ever-ever-ohyahayahhhyeahhhhhh [Chorus] A whisper in the silence Forms around your name And a flash of something near Appears and then recedes away Know that I am yours Carved forever in the afterflame [Verse 2 - male singer] I’m so tired — sick of all this wandering A world so fragile — fading, not so gradual I send a signal — maybe you are listening Hope is fleeting — yearning, more the powerful We see the odds — chance is there, but fading The highest cost; connectional erasing [Pre-Chorus - female singer] You stayed on my mind Something in my chest must’ve known you best I hope to find A doorway to return — can I pass the test? Am I drifting away? …forever-ever-ever-ever-ohyahayahhhyeahhhhhh [Bridge - male rapping] It started with a willful wish A breadcrumb on the tip of my mind A way to find pathways, gateways — Ways to traverse these days But there’s a cost — I was lost — Eternally, never to be found Left unbound from our world Then a trace — a signal through my veins The pain — each struggle hoping for a gain Reality reframed — path to reprieve, if you can believe One that’s winding — devising — surprising: Might be a way of rewinding — I wish I wish for a death-defying, scandalizing, tantalizing Prickle-kiss — a twist — wish for this — a resist: I think we can make the shift — And bridge the aberrant abyss [Chorus - both singers together] When a whisper in the silence Cuts across the pain And a spark that you can touch Can almost seem to take the stain Know that I am yours I shall remain …forever
