Poisoned by your needs to
Control everything take over me
My intentions were pure

Tension
Tension

Leaving no room for my wishes
Painfully charging like a steer
Through me go ahead my matador
Take my life as it would

Tension
Tension

I always thought you were the bull
In the China shop pushing
Your way around leaving your
Sloppy marks above ground
But now I am the torro
A rodeo for you to be free in
However you choose to be

Tension
Tension

The sanctity and safety of
What I might have felt has
Gone away and now I am
Left with myself
Not feeling empty but
Ready for change
If I move to Japan
Start over again
Does it matter anyway
It’s my turn to exist
Maybe a year from now

Relief
Relief

A friendship that convicts
Itself of being unprotected
By the elements of your
Outside forces and influences
So then I am wrong
But from all of this
We will be freed

That feels right

I remember I was so angry
You could cut the tension
In the room with a machete
It would have been easier
Just to move on but I
Already felt so discounted
By you
I always thought someone
Or something would get in
The way knowing we would
Have our Ursula and I was
Shown in some other worldly
Way that the truth was coming
I had no way of knowing
It would be through me and
Not through you but
When a scissor comes to cut
The ceremonial rope
It doesn’t care what the
Ends are tied to
Not like we did
Not like I did

Not like we knew…
Treachery to be gilded past
And hesitations that were
At long last the end of the
Line that was thrown out
Into the abyss never foretelling
That the end was always waiting
To begin when the riddle of the
Pools of purple black and magenta
Swirled beneath us like a
Sinkhole in the sea of our
Once hoped for destinies
