The silence beckons
but I just won’t succumb
I keep on blabbering
pretending that I’m dumb
but I just won’t succumb
I keep on blabbering
pretending that I’m dumb
The stillness is there somewhere
I can feel it in my bones
but I can’t stop moving
and emitting aching groans
I can feel it in my bones
but I can’t stop moving
and emitting aching groans
Afraid of the nothingness
which can only be felt
the mind holds on to something,
anything, so that it does not melt
which can only be felt
the mind holds on to something,
anything, so that it does not melt
But what do I hold on to?
Is it the mind?
If I surrender to silent stillness
what will I find?
Is it the mind?
If I surrender to silent stillness
what will I find?
