Unorthodox
The sun rises to my back

The set I never see

This walk towards outer space

.

Guided by a map drawn with circles

The speed of things that never change

.

Tethered to detachment

This spirals made with teeth

A ratio made to deviate

A deviance from the hemisphere

A life born to defy

Anchored to the loneliness

The path upward towards the sky

.

The numeric dial spins against the lock

Living with inertia

Momentum has its ways

Containment below the surface

In a man that doesn't change

.

A man that has no purpose

On a path to get away

.

The hands will stop when time decides

As I walk away

.

Without promise

The drag in extra weight

The sun rises to my back

This burden builds with pain.

.

The chance to leave this earth

Love is why I stay

.

Inching towards destruction

The force against the grain

.

Looking for my safety

Making sure you're safe

.

Extraction from the cell

.

Pioneering towards the heavens

Leading me to hell

.

Unless it's coming with me

I was born to leave myself
