Longing Belonging Lyrics by Cryptodira

The Devil’s Despair

2017

I’m searching for a schema of happiness
But I’m not convinced this concept won’t betray itself
All I have to work with are fleeting moments
Thin like foam, that still somehow preserve themselves
Instant spread over eternity. As I’m being, I’m becoming
What I need cannot be universal and indifferent
One particular moment steps forward
It’s the look in the eye of a lover when they can say
“I need you,” while remaining a Self
How that shock can make me disappear
The ‘self’ of the ego reflects the other’s
And collapses in ‘here’ and in ‘now.’
We’re objects apart in space, but subjects together in time
Being-in-and-for-each-other
I say “I,” may as well just say “we.”
