ENLIGHTENMENT(?)

If we're not suffering what happened yesterday We're worried about what's gonna happen tomorrow How many more times are we gonna get tricked by society And more importantly, our own minds? Why are we suffering ourselves? We've been fooled To believing that there's something more to be had out there Away from ourselves We've been drinking poison, thinking it's gonna quench our thirst Stop believing all the lies that you have to buy this You have to do this, you have to become this You are the authority of your own existence, no one else Do you know that I'm gonna die one day? Do you know we're all gonna die one day? We need to look at this now Our mortality is the key to our freedom You are enough, we are complete Stand tall and know your fucking worth Together, right now This is the part where we're done, we'll start over All your negative thoughts, all you've lost, we'll let go If you feel like giving up, then there's something I need you to know That I'm here for you Can we all just take a moment And see what we've become? We're all so lost and we know it We're tired of waking up and feeling numb But we all just sit and wonder (wonder) How do we define our love? The more that I discover That there's no me without us Spill divine alibis as we drink them in Tired of waking up and feeling numb For that sinking feeling Our rapture's begging the question "Does it feel right?" Compassion's a weapon, now we're helpless on the other side The sonder whispers something I need you to know That I'm here for you Can we all just take a moment And see what we've become? We're all so lost and we know it We're tired of waking up and feeling numb But we all just sit and wonder (wonder) How do we define our love? The more that I discover That there's no me without us What's your plan of attack? Your plan B that we never had Say what you mean if you mean what you say In the year of the rat, the blame hides in the rhetoric All our errors now are perilous This world is too much It's time to give up the ghost in us No stranger to grief Enlighten me It's time to let it all out There's no me without... There's something ingrained Something insatiable I can't betray Something so deep that the tide doesn't change It's okay to not be okay I'm told that the world works in mysterious ways And the more we search, we get further away It's okay to not be okay There's something ingrained Something insatiable I can't betray Something so deep that the tide doesn't change It's okay to not be okay I'm told that the world works in mysterious ways And the more we search, we get further away It's okay to not be okay
