It Was Me

It was me It was me It was me What do you wanna know about meditation? What do you wanna know about the brain? I only went looking for these things When I knew I was going insane I thought my mind would grow calmer Like a pond in the morning rise But as the years went longer The wisdom was but a disguise It was me It was me It was me A masked version of love A heart behind a stone Attempts at intertwining Were at best a distant tone Long before I could tell A footless one I became Traversing the world far and wide The ground I could not name It was me It was me It was me It was me A touch of the toe on the earth below Would sting like the hottest of coals What good was it just to feel embody? When I could rest inside my soul What good is a soul without a body? What good is God without your mind? You can't believe in nothing If you can't feel what's inside It was me It was me It was me It was me It was me Sensation, oh, sensation A mystical conversation What told me I knew the answer When I was so far from creation Tethered to the contemplation Of a thought galaxies away There was nothing out there There was nothing in here And nothing is here to stay That was me That was me That was me It was me That was me It was me All I know is a feeling It makes me feel good or bad I don't know what those words mean And I don't know what I am But no longer I look for the answer From whence I did before Like a gust of wind on a hot summer day I become the dust once more
