Of Matter Lyrics by TesseracT

PORTALS

2021

[I: Proxy]
[Intro]
I'm a surrogate
I'm archetypal and itinerant
I'm your excuse to long for a superior
I will undertake, I will overcome
[Verse 1]
Imperfection you will find
Look close enough, tear off the mask I need
This endeavor is not mine
You subject me to the daggers you conceive
[Chorus 2]
I'm stronger than I was before
Thus you reinforce these walls, I can't fight you anymore
Threatened by the open door
All the chances I ignore, I can't stand still anymore
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Thе day is done, nothing left to say
Resting hеad in hands, wishing I had known my place
To take a stand, the errand of a fool
I'm not to reprimand, I'm here to help you through
[Outro]
Is nothing like it seems?
Living in this sequence, a dream
Is nothing like it seems?
Gather broken shards of self esteem
[II: Retrospect]
[Intro]
Burning bridges as I cower beneath
Trying to salvage the debris
My devotion tied around your waist, lest you fall
No one seems to sense the strain, no one seems to know
[Verse 2]
Burning bridges as I cower beneath
Trying to salvage the debris
My devotion tied around your waist, lest you fall
No one seems to sense the strain, no one seems to know
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't begin to proclaim that I know
I can't continue down this road
[Chorus 2]
Dwelling on what has come to pass
No force alive will bring it back, I would know
I can feel the pressure getting steeper with every life lost, you
Hope that I won't see the light of day in time to come
With no conviction founded just
Judgement contorted based on lust, give me strength
Your assumption brings to a conclusion of no consequence and
I refuse to play into your hands for your appeal
[Post-Chorus]
Inadequate
Inadequate
I know
[Outro]
I know
I know
I know
I've hoped
I've hoped
You'll see me
[III: Resist]
[Intro]
Turn back time
Reason why
Breakneck speed
History
[Pre-Chorus]
Waiting (Waiting), waning (Waning)
Exasperating (Exasperating)
Unstrung tether
Hoping forever
[Chorus 3]
No!
I tried to settle bets with my own soul
Bless my lips for the first time before you don't
Gripping to the last touch of your hand I grow to loathe
Hope that you remember just how far I'll go
Spend the rest of my life wishing I'm enough
[Outro]
Resist, resist, resist
Resist, resist, resist
