Teeter totter
Twisted faces
mechanical minds
how do I know where to draw the line?
Is it here? Is it here? is it in the air?
who is it that lets me know?
Encrypted lies can fill the mind
it only takes a moment in time
teeter totter
you look this way and that
but it only takes a moment
to find where you are at!
Celestial bodies in perfect spherical form
if one is to see
beauty and splendor must not be adorned
Outside, the world seems to captivate and dance in flow
but if you look inside, are you feeling aglow?
Everything is within, can't you see?
The planets and the people are just like me
fear is real
but so is love
the road you choose is but a star above
Right now you are alive, and can see the light
what else is needed, do you want to phite?
To hurt oneself is to hurt another
and to hurt another is to hurt oneself
Spirits and demons are but a fiery dream
The real life is right now between the seams
We are all in this together, through thick and thin
to change the world
you must only find your place within
Twisted minds hide in the shadows of time
will you let their eyes
be your ultimate demise?
Pay no heed to their inherent follies!
The only thing they teach is the way of the collie
All bark and no bite
will they ever see a day in the light?
It is up to us
but don't teeter or totter
Stay seated in the heart
and your mind will flower
(the word phite is a combination of the word fight and phi where phi is a mathematical ratio commonly found in nature)
