Lotus

I always open my eyes so wide

Try with all my might

To find the truth that we hide

I see your reasons

But my heart just don’t, just don’t feel right

You say we’re nothing, nothing in this world

But then somehow we’re all connected in a book of faces

Singularity is just steps away

Our boats should have never departed

We left the shoreline empty handed

Empty handed

Blinded by the sounds of birdsong

We’re tumbling down this path of destruction

Will you just put me back to sleep

Will you just take away these chains

There’s nothing more than vanity

Will you just put me back to sleep, to sleep

Spend all your youth, your life, counting numbers

Your emotions are muted

Behind the glasses, the doors

Dropping hearts just to feel alive

I don’t seek your validation

I don’t need your fake affliction

But I’m alive

Singularity is just steps away

Our boat should have never departed

We left the shore line empty handed

Empty handed

Blinded by the sounds of birdsong

We’re tumbling down this path of destruction

Will you just put me back to sleep

Will you just take away these chains

There’s nothing more than vanity

Will you just put me back to sleep, to sleep
