Lotus by Messier 16 Lyrics

The heave
The solemn anxiety
The stems cling firmly to its thirsty roots

Singular eye
On top of the surface
Jugular sigh
Chloroplast remains seep out

They left
What cloud rained on them?
Should my shame be set aside
And left to fester in the ground?

Root fissure cracks
Laden stem bent
Bruised panicle detached
Split amethyst petal floats away

I left all that I loathe
Shame to lie in the murky bedrock
I cut off my invisible blot
To set roots
In shallower waters
For everyone to see

In shallow waters
For everyone to see

Seedlings spring out
No longer
Obstructed
Discoloration fade

Seedlings spring out
No longer
Obstructed
Discoloration fade

Closed bell
But safe from myself
