lyrics

This song is about how confusing life can get and sometimes getting lost in our own minds. Sometimes we search for things that ground us, taking us out of our own heads and into what is real, the world.

Never commit violence and/or suicide as a way to cope! If you ever feel like committing suicide, please call the National Suicide hotline at 1-800-273-8255.

Lost under this infinity I’m in desperation
Will I not cry? Through these tunnels through these paths I can’t explain. Who am I?

Will I figure this out before I return
Static burned in this version of infinity
This painful sequence keeps me wandering all of the moors

As we continue through this path leads away
I don’t know the way

Now the path that shapes us now
Is the only thing that counts
I want to know what exists

How can we change the past?
Until we know how this ends?
I’m going to find it

Is this reality real?
Has my thoughts aligned with my words?
This energy that has formed
Is this the fulcrum point?

Now the path that shapes us now
Is the only thing that counts
I want to know what exists

We all come together out
Of the void of the void

Is this reality mine or yours?
Give me all of the time that I need to catch my breath
Is this reality mine or yours?
It’s difficult to discern what is what in this big world, to recreate another dimension


Where are all the people?
To shatter my illusions on what I got
Where are all the people
To shatter my illusions on what I got

Will I figure this out before I return? X2

What is it that you’re searching for? And when you find it, then what?
