Lyrics
Living By Proxy
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.
Vicariously you live your lie to the full
So beautiful yet so delusional
You follow the masses to indulge your mind
A sense of purpose to the purposely blind
What are you waiting for?
Do you fear the fall?
Will you realise?
Do you care at all?
The world keeps turning
But you're here standing still
You're living by proxy
With no free will!
Do you exist or are you living?
Do you know how it feels to be alive?
Will you wake or will you just keep on dreaming?
Or will you stay living this proxy life?
Viciously you spite the ones that strive
Ridicule just to feel alive
What are you waiting for?
Do you hear the call?
Will you realise?
Do you care at all?
Are you surfacing just to hold me down?
Will you submerge yourself just to watch me drown?
Do you exist or are you living?
Do you know how it feels to be alive?
Will you wake or will you just keep on dreaming?
Or will you stay living this proxy life?
I won't betray myself
I know that I won't live my life through anybody else
This is my chance, my will, my own
I'll face this alone, I must face this alone!
Do you exist or are you living?
Do you know how it feels to be alive?
Will you wake or will you just keep on dreaming?
Or will you stay living this proxy life?
