Balance by Kirby Vitek Lyrics

There’s a silent
Whiplashing whirlwind
Speaks in colors
Talks in light

When those colors
Are whitewashed and smeared grey
They are angry
They feel forced

There’s a balance
When warm whites and bold blacks
Can leak out of
A blue pen’s stem

There’s another one
That lies between the in and the out
Of relation
But also feeling free

I was positive
That I’d slid into the right slot
That my position
Was one of isolation
When cool violence became the slow sword in my sheath
Anonymous dysphoria smashed down the right side
Of the left hand of lord justice holding what it holds
I endlessly swept up the dust of broken marble going on

When I put all of it on a scale
This trial wasn’t leaning either way
Balance doesn’t come with ease
Its subtleties
Let us know

What does it take to let the world in?
How can I speak to those who want to hear?
Those who are cruel or insecure
Dismiss or dig until my faults are exposed
But those who have been where I’ve been before
Will find warmth in every subtle connection
When does risk become self-indulgence?
When do I care if people will hear?

Just like the others
The balance lies inside you

This time is for you to find out

When I put all of it on a scale
The trial wasn’t getting in the way
Balance doesn’t come with ease
Its subtleties
Let us know
