Confetti from Metronome by Synovial

It’s only a couple of minutes away.
No matter which way it lands.
I know it gets harder and harder to follow the format and fight with the reasons.
The wear and tear, the scythe or the rope.
But word to the wise.
Don’t suffer more than you need to.
It won’t ever be enough.
They all fall.
Exactly as they should.
It’s a wonderful life.
It’s a wonderful life.
Repeating again and again.

And wherever it goes, your body won’t believe.
But that can’t stop it from reaching out.
From beneath.
A bedrock is forming.
One greater than the bones they’ve been forced to bear.
And you will bear witness to their waste.
A word of warning.

In my time, I’ve learned a couple of secrets.
Tricks of the trade.
That falling through time is all.
Ebbs and flows.
Ebbs and flows.
There is no without.
And it’s no great loss.
It’s only just...
It’s only just.

A prison.
If you let it be.
A mirage.
If you make it so.
You have more control of what pieces you leave behind than you do of where they go.
So if you must make believe.
Then let it be known.
You can be more than a mirage.
If you make it so.
Go as you must.
And nothing will matter any less.

And wherever it goes, your body won’t believe.
But that can’t stop it from reaching out.
From beneath.
A bedrock is forming.
One greater than the bones they’ve been forced to bear.
And you will bear witness to their grace.

Word to the wise.

When you exit the frame.
They hold their breath.
What little they know.
That’s what carries you through.
Find a place for the soul.
The sighs and the weeping.

Such primitive magic.

That’s what has you bound to the gradient.
From here to the fray.
The gone and the grey.
The red and opaque.

A word of warning.
A whisper is a whirlwind.
Your silence, a chasm.
A fissure on the heart.

It’s a wonderful life.
So give it a sigh.

In my time, I’ve learned a couple of secrets.
That being scattered around is all.
Ebbs and flows.
There is no ‘without’.
And it’s no great loss.
It’s only just...
It’s only...
