lyrics

How much time do you spend examining
the sediment deposits in your brain?
And what did you learn
studying the layers of your history?

Is there ground to be made revisiting
a mind that was packed and stowed away?
Is there anything to gain
traveling to former states of mind?

Can you dig deep enough?
Can you dig deep enough?
Can you dig deep enough, deep enough,
'till you find that silver key?

I've seen it happen in my sleep
and when I try to run I find I can't move my feet.
Maybe it's a signal to my conscious mind
of all the things that it can't find.
It's always been a step behind
my own subconscious line.

Are you looking for a positive
buried in the deepest yesterday?
Hidden within recollections
of a time so far away.

Are you reaching out so hopefully
inhabitants will see you as their own?
Can you navigate the forest you knew
that since has overgrown?

Can you dig deep enough?
Can you dig deep enough?
Can you dig deep enough, deep enough,
'till you find that silver key?

I've seen it happen in my sleep
and when I try to run I find I can't move my feet.
Maybe it's a signal to my conscious mind
of all the things that it can't find.
It's always been a step behind
my own subconscious line.
