Your Own Myth

I'm floating down the wrong stream Believing in the wrong dream Caught up in a myth that isn't my own One step forward, two steps back Never leaving home Instead of living it I want it on a t-shirt Instead of feeling it I want it on a t-shirt How did I get back here once again How did I land so far from who I am Disappointed and stuck And they tell me I'm spiraling up You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes Floating on someone else's stream You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes Scrolling through someone else's dream It's not a punishment She sends you back on purpose To do your work To live your purpose To make it work To face the same challenge with new-found wisdom It's not a punishment Stop fighting it I want it on a t-shirt So I can cover all the hurt You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes Floating on someone else's stream You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes Scrolling through someone else's dream Like a rocket ship Spiral out of it Frustration's inoculation, sublimation of all the past hurt and all the pain Frustration's collaboration, conversation with your soul's true beautiful strength Frustration's an invitation, invocation, incarnation of a new level of you Frustration's an exploration, exaltation of the myth of moving forward Call me now into my next adventure (As long as I'm spiraling it's ok) Pull me deeper, drown me til I laugh (How would I know I was here unless I started somewhere else) Call me up into my next adventure Pull me deep, hold me close Fill my lungs with your love Hold me deep, pull me close Fill my lungs with your love I want it on a t-shirt So I can feel my full worth I want it on a t-shirt So I can flirt with my rebirth You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes Floating on someone else's stream You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes Scrolling through someone else's dream You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes Floating on someone else's stream You can miss your own myth if you close your eyes Scrolling through someone else's dream Dream (Spiral, child) (Spiral, child) (Spiral, child)
