Maybe this is a dream 🦋

LYRICS

Maybe this is a dream
Maybe I’m sleepwalking
Maybe I’m being dreamt 
Maybe, if I keep talking
I’ll bleed the secret well kept
Maybe I’m a candle in the wind
Merely a mantle of bare skin
Maybe I’m a speck, a drop, a ray
One that won’t wreck, won’t rot 
And never will decay

🦋

Maybe I’m witnessing an unfolding
Maybe I’m acting out a script
Maybe I’m paying a debt
Maybe if I stop holding
Release my grip
I’ll cease, desist
And then I’ll be set
Maybe my decisions are delusions
Maybe free will isn’t free
Maybe my actions are illusions
And my ills are drills of destiny

🦋

I see stars in the sky
Maybe what I see lies within me
Ask all the angels 
They seem to all agree
Maybe I’m a white spot on a white page
Untie the knot
I’m light
I’ll rise from the grave

🦋

Maybe I’m beyond time
Maybe I have no face
Maybe I’m groundless
Maybe I’m boundless
Maybe I’m that soundless chime 
One hears from outer space

🦋

Maybe I’m a stream, a flow, an ocean
A taste, a sound, a word
Maybe I’m a dream, a show
A state all open
Maybe I am the world

🦋

Could it be that reality isn’t a process? 
Maybe it’s an explosion
Maybe I’m casually cleaning a mess
That the old gods set into motion

🦋

Maybe I’m waste
Maybe I’m void
Maybe I’m the grace that I taste and peacefully enjoy
Maybe I’m more than flesh 
Maybe I’m more than bones
Maybe I’m a crazy guest exploring his own home

🦋

Maybe I reside beyond rational
Maybe I’m inside
Invisible, inaudible, intangible
Unseen, unheard, untouched
Maybe the dream’s absurd
And all I need is just trust
Maybe there’s nothing out there
Maybe something is simply thin air 

🦋

Maybe I’m object
Maybe I’m subject
Maybe I objectify what I subjectify
Maybe I’m serving a sentence
Maybe I’m paying a penance
Maybe I’ve reached the promised land
Maybe I’ve simply forgotten who I truly am

🦋

I might be silence
I might be spineless
I might be alone
I might be the tiny voice I hear 
Whispering on the phone
Maybe underneath the surface
Maybe behind this world
There’s another and another and another
And behind them all
Maybe there’s the great mother 
Shuffling cards, working undercover

🦋

Maybe I’m 
A shadow of a shadow
A shapeless galaxy
A changeless reality
A shameless travesty
A nameless nobody
A faceless fantasy

🦋

Maybe I’m mystery 
Maybe I’m history
Maybe I’m everything I’ll ever be
Maybe I’m singing in limbo
Maybe I’m One
Maybe I’m the lingering echo
Of a song once sung
