Too Much Dust, and The Window Gets Stuck
Lyrics
**[Intro]**
The silence is way too loud
The echo is way too long
The soul wonders if it can catch this ghost
*(Who encodes... who decodes?)*
A broken system tricking broken people
Division was the monster in the room
**[Verse 1]**
We wake up in a wierd world, Ashes on our tongues,
Trying to live in a liminal-space half-decent life
They had ancient knowledge wiped from our minds
And told us what was real through a mockingbird’s voice.
Hooked anchors to our shoulders
And told us not to feel
Then cursed our time to a clock
And made it loop on a wheel
Greed, power, ego — narcissistic control
But I found a crack in the soundproof wall
A dusty window in the pineal
And a signal that would not fall
**[Pre-Chorus]**
Opening my pineal like a dusty window
Rising from my past now turned to ash
Clearing this haunted attic
Tearing down the propaganda static
Avoiding the rat-chewed wires
So I don’t get shocked and forget
I found an old VHS tape
And it called me back to what I met
**[Chorus]**
I’m breaking the chain inside the rhythm
Turning the wound into a signal
From the corn mother’s labyrinth maze
To the dark drive under moonlit haze
No more validation
No more borrowed station
I move through the distortion
I move through the revelation
**[Verse 2]**
It all came through like a neural dance of epiphany
Going back in time to reclaim little Shadow Me
Faced every fear I had to find a psy-op spell-break remedy
No sugar, no ice, no devil, no Christ
Strong enough to keep me from asking at least twice
Broke free from the old family curse
While learning who I am in reverse
I never got a chance to know me first
Even in the beginning, before I even had words
**[Pre-Chorus]**
A secluded scenic highway
A dark drive under the moonlight
All the questions I kept in
Are now keeping me alive
Don’t look back in rearview
While you travel through the storm
A circuit starts to tingle under your skin
And the veil begins to warm
**[Chorus]**
I’m breaking the chain inside the rhythm
Turning the wound into a signal
From the corn mother’s labyrinth maze
To the dark drive under moonlit haze
No more validation
No more borrowed station
I move through the distortion
I move through the revelation
**[Bridge]**
We’re burning out of this matrix dream
This upside down has seen stranger things
Nothing in this world is as it seems
When you’re pushed, just pull in with it
Seek your divine light
Focus your third eye beam
Send your channel up so high
Let the false towers scream
A cosmic ghost echo
A digital phantom
Finally dancing together
A balanced tandem
**[Outro]**
The shadow learned my name
And didn’t bite
It sat beside the static
Then turned it into light
I heard the truth beneath the noise
A quiet flame inside my chest
What they buried in the shadow
I brought back from the depths
