Listen. . .
With faint dry sound,
Like steps of passing ghosts,
The leaves, frost-crisp'd, break from the trees
And fall.

Shadows of Ourselves
02:35

Behind the mirror
You can find the source of your disdain
The deeper you dive, the clearer it gets.
In the quiet you can feel it
As it slowly breaks you into a thousand pieces
That spin around and ‘round
Until they fall into
A mosaic of decay. . .
Oh bittersweet revelation!
Blinded by the glare and deafened by those voices
How can thoughts be free?
How can they be free?
Close your eyes and try to see. . .
What if the monsters we fear are only the shadows of ourselves?

Little bird across the room
With colored wings wide spread
Surrounded by such lively bloom
And yet inside you’re dead
Your feathers weren’t meant to fly
Your throat not made to sing
Just made to please the viewer’s eye
With what nature used to bring
Frozen in free fall
Stuck to the paper on the wall
I know you are a drawing
Yet in your eyes I found
That you and I we somehow
have some common ground
Both of us we doubt
That someday we’ll be free
To use what natures given as a gift
To you and me
You lost your body, I my soul
Both robbed of true belief
No spirit to rely upon
Doomed like treeless leaves
Indifferent are the faces
Yet no one is to blame
For we are mostly taught to see
Just our side of the frame
So if you had a heart
Would you sing for me?
I promise if I could then I would
Set you free
You lost your body, I my soul
Both robbed of true belief
No spirit to rely upon
Doomed like treeless leaves

Spaced-out psych jazz that could easily soundtrack the Black Lodge, "Mutations" is an eerie wonder.
