Where Owls Know My Name - Rivers of Nihil

And then I wished you away

I lost those memories

Of the days we weren’t

Forsaken.

Why don’t we

Just relax our eyes

And fall into a dream

Let it take my mind

Where owls know my name

And it gets colder every day

Lost in eternity’s grasp

Withdrawing further from what we have known

This mentality that we’ve built

It’s breaking down

Still running away from it

You’re still dreaming

Still hoping that there’s something that may be worth seeking

You’ve wasted all that you have been given

Still hoping to find a way to make life worth living

Lost in eternity’s grasp

We’ll find no way to weather the storm

This mentality that we built

Is breaking down

All the same

Every path you take

You remain

Trapped within your shame

Go away far away

Separate from the shame

Lost in eternity’s grasp

Withdrawing further from what we have known

This mentality that we’ve built

It’s breaking down

I brought myself to this place

Where only owls would know me

This reality that I’ve built

Is an empty space
