Matters of the Mind

What you see is what you want
Chase things that haunt your dreams
Fill the cracks with broken glass
Shines when the light hits just right
Carry what you thought you left behind
In matters of the mind 

Sleep with one eye open
Let go of hope in expectations
Cause you can’t even control yourself
Tame the beast at the end of the leash
Stare it in the eyes on repeat
Inhale, exhale, release

Found home in a strange place
The comfort of a clean slate when we awake
Every time we try and resist this
The concept of time doesn’t exist
The things we hide surface as a lie 
In matters of the mind

And through the dust it’s clear
The answers were always here
Focus on the here and now
Surrounded by the life we made
You wear the crown, I’ll wear the cape
There’s only one way out, one escape 

Lessons make us who we are
If it wasn’t hard we wouldn’t know
How much we needed to grow
Take advantage of where we are
Open your eyes after being so blind
In matters of the mind 

Love Always, 
Lainey
