"Halcyon" - Mono

Myles : I used to say...
Myles : Honestly...
Myles : That i'm not me.
Myles : And that Mono...
Myles : And their songs are like... glimpses at the true.
Myles : The thing we're all supposed to grasp.
Myles : That true full potential.
Myles : But we know we can't.
Myles : So we only enjoy the small view through the keyhole...
Myles : Through the chipped paint on the window...
Myles : To that world that's complete.
Myles : That place that doesn't need the guidelines...
Myles : That place where it's safe.
Myles : Where we have no winglets on our arms for reality...
Myles : No death.
Myles : No life.
Myles : Just that place.
Myles : And being in it.
Myles : And longing for something we could never have...
Myles : Because we're not put together...
Myles : But in others, like people, like Mono...
Myles : They're all trying to get together...
Myles : Like raindrops from clouds.
Myles : We're all diving from it...
Myles : But never at once.
Myles : Never at the same time.
Myles : So when we get to the place we're belong before the transition...
Myles : We're alone.
Myles : We're scared.
Myles : And we eventually find a pool.
Myles : Or a puddle.
Myles : And feel like we belong.
Myles : But it's never enough...
Myles : Or for long enough.
Myles : Because we go back up into the cloud.
Myles : But there are those few who find a lake or a pond or a river all going to that place...
Myles : And I think they're lucky.
Myles : But us.
Myles : We have to find a way...
Myles : To fall at once.
Myles : To get there together.
Myles : To piece ourselves together truly... because it's not impossible.
