William Doyle - Castawayed Lyrics

Barefoot in a shallow sea,
Hunched over LCD pictures of me
Narcissus' dream

Thinking

I once had a lovely spine that used to stand tall
And I'd sizzle with pride at everything I'd create

But these days, as the sea ebbs away
Revealing the driftwood, splayed
All I can say is same.
In reaction .gif replayed over and again

Castawayed

/

Then, dreaming a shallow dream
There by the light of screen:
A flickering sleep
A mass sickening

That's when I buried everything,
Shed all my precious skin
And headed for fields,
My back to the feels I once felt

Then, with grin, self-satisfying,
I headed for plains unknown
With no way to call back home.
I'd never been so alone.

And so, once again

Castawayed

/

True freedom is all but myth
Whether without or with
Sanity cracked / conscience intact
