Lost in the world today
I find myself awake
Now check me for a pulse
'Cause vital signs can deceive
Where did I go?
See your spirit aching
Soul need not respite you
Never will quite reach that gold
And that'll just have to do
But I'm not you
Throw me under, pull me out
Give me love, adore me
Throw me under, pull me out
Give me hate, ignore me
I beg like a stray dog
Pride surrendered screaming
Breathing is not believing
Seeing is not receiving
Holding me in tow
As I try to make these days
Turn into evenings
Breathing is not believing
Betraying is not deceiving
Trying every here and there
This labyrinthine search for any meaning
Breathing is not believing
Seeing is not receiving
Holding me in tow
As I try to make these days turn into...
