Lyrics Courtesy of: hiphopVOMIT
The ashen angel is without a place to return to
The threshold between the sky and the asphalt is a crying, smiling world
The more that people cease to exist
Something is going missing
Even the stairs ascending to heaven are
Unnoticed
Searching for the fragments of the lost wings
Today too pursuing someone’s back
Too much, it can’t be carried by oneself
In order to share the sorrow
Drifting in the empty street
Even thought you think about the one you love until it hurts
Why can’t you become one?
The incomplete body
Words that escape from lips
Even though they are good just being exchanged
Being requested too much, they break
Anytime
Conflict, hurt, screams, breaking
Even with that you still continue to trust
With patching and darning, spinning the words
Playing (an instrument) in the sky that I cannot return to
Seven billion distorted melodies
Neither white nor black, we are
Receiving the whole of strength and weakness which also makes us laugh
The ashen angel
Searching for the fragments of the lost wings
Today too pursuing someone’s back
Too much, it can’t be carried by oneself
In order to share the sorrow
Drifting in the empty street
My broken heart and my heart makes a sound
I play an instrument creakily, that beautiful distorted melody
Captive Psyche
