Paul Sadler - Sketches of Nothing

Though I strive, I still mould the world with an emperor's hands
I remain the only vivid ruler of this lonely land
Oh how your intrusion is such a burden on me, take it from me
And yet I look so small in the reflection of your pupil
Turn your gaze

Can there be seven billion centres of the universe
Each a portrayal of reality I cannot fold into my own
Oh how I am lost within a distortion of 'me', a version of 'me'
Am I just as liquid as the tears that feed your river
And could I drown in someone else's dream

See how the darkness fades
When severed from the roots of our illusion may our leaves entwine
And even as my flowers wilt
Forever bloom the seeds I'll never know

Shattering the walls we build deep within our circuitry
They hold us in our kingdom of the self, prolonging this delusion

See how the darkness fades
When severed from the roots of our illusion may our leaves entwine
And even as my flowers wilt
Forever bloom the seeds I'll never know

See how perceptions change
When softened in the furnace of existence and reality
Oh how the moonlight shines
On every single reading of the truth
