about

In Collaboration with Giosue Greco.

lyrics

a Temporary memory lapse
Not now, not in the past
Victim of of our dreams

Swimming in the here and now
Treading water wondering how
To break the current Midstream

I’m a Goldfish in
a bag of plastic
Don’t know where I’m going
Afraid to ask it

Body fixed, my heart still grows
Organs fail, my mind now knows
A life (death) prolonged

Pressed against glass
How do I expect to last?
In a world I don’t belong?

I’m a Goldfish in
a bag of plastic
Don’t know where I’m going
Afraid to ask it
A live cadaver
This is my open casket
A purgatory
With the world
contrasted

You’re free on your own
Cast out to unknown
You’re Far out of reach
Beyond the sink or swim
You’re meant to fly with fins
Despite the bowl you’
re in
Turn the sky to shining sea
oceans open Within
