Rope

our knots of anxiety

to the darkness they do bind us

within a catastrophic prophecy

confined now indefinitely 

we suffer, we despair...

if we would only let go

perhaps light could then find us

unbounded from anxieties

freely wandering indefinitely

again wild like an animal

Huge props for posting The Grudge, that one ended up on my Facebook a while back. It's a mood.

It's very high quality music. It is good to hear from fellow Tool aficionados.

They have done nothing wrong. Even Fear Inoculum is stellar. I'm getting old enough to appreciate it, anyways. Struggling... to remain... relevaaaaant....

"clutch it like a cornerstone..." oh wait...

oh s**t... is that a bad thing? Maynard has been ruining my life since 1994.

Until you chooooooose toooooo.... and so on. That's the damn tricky part, of course.

The knotted mind is one that many struggle with, but with help and time, all knots can be freed. Beautiful writing :)

The whole thing is a knot. We free ourselves only to be "born" again. Welcome to the party.
