Lyrics
Somnolent Detachment
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A random word from your mouth
To break this in sequence
You can't brave this shift alone
In defense to keep this rational
Less experience in this heat
If the tone levels out
In time I will stay conscious to end
What we begin
What percent will hold before shut down
What percent will register
Under clouds of sound meant to form these words
Lost this space between a clear thought
What percent will register
What percent will shut down
Communicate all your words
To pass through
Fogged sight; content to blow
Eyes shut, dreams to show
Communicate all your words
To pass through; the silent new
Confused state left behind
Hidden term; the message is burned
State of mind; levels low
Eyes shut; content to blow
Fogged sight; the pace slow
All in side; dreams to show
What percent will register
What percent will hold 'til shut down
