Brother, This is not the life You envisioned for yourself You cry: Where am I? Where am I? Your graceless downfall Can be blamed only on you You have been blind, since the beginning of time Those good intentions have failed you once again Leaving you to asking yourself: where is my ever after, ever after? It took more than intention to build the pyramids It took more than intention to discover the planets We the concrete of mind Aren’t satisfied with the apathy in your hearts We the concrete of mind Persist where others will falter We the concrete of mind Will never stop We the concrete of mind Won’t take our lives for granted anymore Filled with doubt and desperation You’ve lost control For you I sympathize Living in a world that’s shaded grey With a heart of gold You’ve found no silver lining I was just like you I never realized I had the answers all along When I felt that I couldn’t handle my dreams A comforting shoulder Your hand in mine I just needed to hear myself say You know the way We have the strength inside To bring about a greater happiness For ourselves, and those we love Confide in yourself first Rely on yourself first You are the only one Who can inspire you I‘ve struggled through misfortune My slate is clean I’ve turned a blind eye towards distractions In myself I truly believe We’ve built these machines as mirrors, as a way to understand ourselves The truth behind what really concerns us, is our only innate advice No stone tablet, outline or doctrine Could bring meaning to your life An impression is all you need, It was the only thing we brought with us You know the way Inner strength transcends the limits of grace There is a purpose in every breath that you take Although the waters may get rough, tidal waves would never be enough To deviate the course of your beliefs To recreate the foundation that you have laid
