lyrics

Trust in the system
Take the conveniences at their word
Accept the death that’s dealt you
Ignore the grievances left unheard
The paradox of living
The bait and switch of reluctant worth that’s assigned to you
The singular sight of your virtues
To be abused

Do you know the way out?
Can you show me?
Dreaming all the way to the other side
Give your blood and sweat to another life
Waiting for your stop, just enjoy the ride
Valued passenger

I brought you here!
-Don’t pretend like you own me
And I can take you away!
-Like your promises earned me
Soporific

No
I’m not one of a kind
I’m a chiasmatic passenger
Two systems combine
So tell me why I feel so well defined!
Stuck in this cold design

Entitled to the planet
Entitled to your time in space
Inherently disparate
Too short-sighted to know your place

You stand apart!
-Don’t pretend like you know me
Separate from the stars!
-Like your torment controls me

No
I’m not one of their kind
A skyward gazing passenger
Bound for the divine
So tell me why I feel so deprived!
Inherently denied

Soporific traveler, you keep on waiting to arrive
Well your dominion’s growing weary of it
If you’re so set apart, why’re you wondering where you are?
I think the traveling’s taken its toll on you

The false starts and panicked beginnings
Fall in love with the secrets of the fall
Unbound heart
Don’t know what you came for
Embrace the tired unrest that you are
