Can I see in my mind
everything to which I'm blind?
Can I peer in from outside
and see what lay behind?
'Cause all you know and all you see
is just perception floating freely
a construct of the mind.
And the focus that you choose
will coalesce into the truth.
What will it be for you?
What will it be for you?
So am I seeing true?
Is my heart still beating through?
Or am I stuck in my skull
getting caught up in illusions of the mind?
(Chorus)
In the noise there is a tone.
And it's pure when heard alone.
I need to be outside of me
'cause I drown it out by thinking logically.
Through the chaos there's a light
that only can be seen with true sight.
Can I observe my psyche mindfully?
'cause in the end it's me that's stopping me.
(Chorus)
