Speechless, lonesome, locked in thought
I've always lived inside my head
Even though I'm with you I still get lonely
But it's not your fault, It's not my fault
Im happy with you, the world just isn't right
I don't even have to think about it, I just feel it
Unbalanced, chaotic, diseased with blight
If only there was a way that I could heal it
I've never been the leader type, and I certainly do not follow
A loner, humanitarian, philosopher in my own mind
The world is a crowded hallway, yet to me its always felt bare and hollow
So much I wish to change here, but first we break the binds
We need to wake up, open up our eyes
start searching for the truth, start burying the lies
Your reading this, looking for poetic patterns
Hoping for clever rhymes, and they're here but as odd as the rings of saturn
Structure is nice, but not always the best way to build a foundation
I am the imperfect human, I dont care if this is written "right"
We care about material things, not ever about whats important
I am as guilty as you of this
Take the red pill, take the blue pill
You'll see how far the rabbit hole goes regardless
They never want you to know that
They want you to think that we have a choice
I want you to know that we have a voice
All I want is to be heard
In my lyrics, my melodies, my rhythms, in my music
I have so much to say, a war to fight, I don't want to lose it
This isn't about just one thing
But if it was, it would be about your mind
Open it, free it, see where it takes you
You might wake up tomorrow a different person.
