Locktide

from Shifted Silhouette by Vertigo Fox

lyrics

This shouldn't be real
Think I fell through the floor
Through the universe
Who opened this door?
And what am I down here?

This sense, not all my fear

For it seems almost some twisted home
And I don’t think it's my own

If I tried to go
What might follow my stolen soul?
For I’m not alone
Prowling deeper into this darkened cold

A world for a lock, holds to the tide
Unsynchronized, releases what's inside

Stranger beings pricking whiskers
Tickling at my tail
Unheard, naked, but in my shadows
Faint scent of their trail
Tear apart any who see
This creature that’s me
For once I’ve been revealed
What gets unsealed?

I know that you're out there
I know what you want
That I'm holding out here
Would be so easy to falter

Dark gravity
A world for a lock and I'm a key


Dark gravity
Why’d it choose me?

Vertigo Fox enjoys long walks and hikes, though the cats he inevitably encounters always tell him they're prowls.
