lyrics

We lie awake Because we’re numb to the world
Playing dumb as if we’re twirled
Around the little finger of the ones
Who control the image of the setting sun
And the rising of the tides Our eyes are wide

We lie awake Because we don’t know any better
To feel under the weather As it’s raining down filling up our glass
with The poisons that strip the masses
Of their ability to feel anything And our eyes sting

Could it be we’re walking in our sleep?
Could it be I just need you near me?
Could it be an old opinion as a new heresy?
Could it be I just need you near me?

We lie awake Make no mistake there’s more to be done
With the riddles that plague imagination
We all know we should be moving
Through the haze of the illusion
that We’re all so god damned needy ‘cause
That’s not what our eyes see

Could it be we’re walking in our sleep?
Could it be I just need you near me?
Could it be an old opinion as a new heresy?
Could it be I just need you near me?

Anything more, doesn’t matter if you are
My fatalistic tendencies Tend to get the best of me
And I find myself looking for protection
(caught up in the thoughts of philosophy)
And I find myself awake
(Look up at the stars and think of grace)
I find myself looking in your direction
(I'll hold you in my arms, we'll go together)
To find a safe and holy place
