lyrics

Got out of bed,
Stared at the razor blade.
Watched as it bled,
Thought about everything you said.

How nothing is real,
How nothing is permanent,
How all the appeal,
Of living’s lost its zeal.

So what do you say?
Should we get out of here?
Find our escape,
Find that eternal better place?

Oh, what does it mean,
If I don’t yet want to leave?
Obviously,
My masochistic tendencies.
Are pulling the strings,
And I’m a fool if I give in,
When all that it brings,
Is this sting.

Sat on the ground,
Stared at the open sky,
All that I found,
Was the clouds were passing by.

And I felt alone,
But not in a lonely way,
More like I’d known,
Interconnection all along.

And then it made sense,
All of the backwards talk,
To love everyone,
Is really just to love ourselves.

Oh, what does it mean,
If I’m happy just to be?
And all that I see,
Is my self in everything,
And all that I need,
Is the open air beneath,
My free floating feet,
As I dream.

What does it mean,
If I don’t yet want to leave?
Happy to be,
A leaf that floats along the breeze,
For eternity,
Until I land upon a dream,
That’s tailored for me,
And sets me free...
