Living in the End
Skirmish: the other side (@melodic)Liner Notes
#lyricsonly Living in the end is a manifestation technique where you put your focus on the other side of a transformation. I might have copied half of the scansion from a hit song of a similar title.
Lyrics
My past life’s liquidated My future not arrived I’m stuck here in between Transition times are fated No one knows this more than I Reality’s a dream
I’m living in the end Drinking down my delusions Living in the end These are my electrolytes I’m living in the end Drinking down my delusions
My success is guaranteed On this oceangoing ship I reach my port of call No one need remember me The days I made this trip As long as I don’t fall
I’m living in the end Drinking down my delusions Living in the end These are my electrolytes I’m living in the end Drinking down my delusions
I’m dreaming up a version of my distant future Making sure it fits with who I might want to be I’m waking in the morning with a mental checklist The whole thing probably reads just like a fantasy But that’s up to me
Taking inventory While I am lying in my bed I don’t know what to feel If I’m writing my own story And it ends the way I said The details make it real
I’m living in the end Drinking down my delusions Living in the end These are my electrolytes I’m living in the end Drinking down my delusions
I’m living in the end Drinking down my delusions Living in the end These are my electrolytes I’m living in the end Drinking down my delusions
Good write. I don't quite understand the bit about electrolytes but that's a small thing. Are the delusions kinda in solution? Interesting concept of living as if you have already made the changes.
