lyrics

PERSONAL GODS

I feel it in the morning
It starts inside my head
Endless thoughts are ever streaming
And I can't stop them from
Making me believe that I'm the only one
But I know we're all a part of something bigger

We're trying
To give ourselves some meaning in this life
We're trying
To make our peace with our own gods

And if the only things we own
Are our thoughts, and bodies
And if the caged bird sings louder than the rest
Then I think I'll stay right here
In my selfish little shell
Where everything is right where I want it to be

It could be worse
I could be like the others
I could be sucked into the void
Where nothing hurts and it all just stays the same
Just boring, dull routine

Right here where I belong.
