lyrics

Finally awake for the first time
Now that I left behind (gone, gone, gone)
The future past and toxic expectations leading nowhere (nowhere)
Memory clear, blurred edges defined

Yesterday I wandered with my face on backwards
Blind, with inside out eyes, compromised
And a fog seeped from my pores over the damp streets
In the miasma my anima misplaced in cracks of concrete

But now I’m awake for the first time
Now that I left behind (gone, gone, gone)
The future past and toxic expectations leading nowhere (nowhere)
Memory clear, blurred edges defined

Where were you when the fruit fell from the basket?
Did you really think that time was on your side?
Every exhale a nascent resting symphony
Can’t keep holding your breath now, the world’s going to see you differently

Now that you’re awake for the first time
Now that you left behind (gone, gone, gone)
The future past and toxic expectations leading nowhere (nowhere)
Memory clear, blurred edges defined

Can’t ignore the vines at my feet on their perpetual parade
And the decaying pulsar, counting up our mistakes
Yeah, I got a long way to go, like a marathon in quicksand
And I’m a small, small man, but I do understand
With every step I take that I’m leaving them, I’m leaving them behind
Our own life we divine

Awake for the first time
Now that I left behind (gone, gone, gone)
The future past and toxic expectations leading nowhere (nowhere)
Memory clear, blurred edges defined
