Lyin’ Awake
Oh, hey, yeah
Lyin' awake like I've been before
But I'm miles away, I can't see straight no more
Right in your space, I just walked through your door
But I'm still so far away
Ooh, ooh, oh, yeah
My eyes don't glow like they did before
Reflecting the light of day, hey
Ravelling softly while you speak in time
But I'm still so far away
Lyin' awake like I've been before
But I'm miles away, I can't see straight no more
Right in your space, I just walked through your door
But I'm still so far away
Ground slips away while the earth decays
Tired of breakin' day, hey
Turnin' around at the speed of sound
But I'm still so far away
Lyin' awake like I've been before
But I'm miles away, I can't see straight no more
Right in your space, I just walked through your door
But I'm still so far away
Day after day, I dissipate away
It seems to me "okay" is the only word I say today
Lies that grind right through your hollow mind
To find that time itself has always been on your side
Rewind, pass, reverse, same lines that you rehearse
Same lies when you've been hurt, tryin' to swallow your worth
Matter of mind, matter fact, stay on your grind
And come back to recognize in a lucid state of mind
Time disagrees with the roots and trees
Dyin' to glimpse the day, hey
I've tasted gravel and I've watched it unwind
But I'm still so far away, okay
Lyin' awake like I've been before
But I'm miles away, I can't see straight no more
Right in your space, I just walked through your door
But I'm still so far away
They left me
Lyin' awake like I've been before
But I'm miles away, I can't see straight no more
Right in your space, I just walked through your door
But I'm still so far away
Lyin' awake like I've been before
But I'm miles away, I can't see straight no more
Right in your space, I just walked through your door
But I'm still so far away
But I'm still so far away
But I'm still so far away
