...to Paint a Soul, Vol. 1
[verse 1]
I was told satisfaction is the death of desire
Let's put it to the test, give everything it requires
Hope is the suture that is keeping me whole
It's also the producer of what's killing my soul
Aiming is off now when I'm taking a shot
Quicksand fills the hourglass and that's explaining a lot
The more that you fight it, the deeper you go
Time can be known to up and swallow you whole
All I want is a peace of mind it's an obsession of mine
It's to the point I can't even tell my reflection "I'm fine"
Can you see through this facade I've constructed?
Defense mechanisms has become so counter-productive
I wouldn't say that I'm suffering, just yearning for more
All the signs are there, it's something that you shouldn't ignore
I'm looking more to re-explore to see what's really important
The best things in life are free yet we can barely afford 'em

[hook]
Navigating in the dark...ness
(Just waiting for the sun...rise)
Some are saying that I'm heart...less
(But I gotta be some...times)
See me bathing in the moon...light
(Under a sky that's star...less)
Looking at it makes you lose...sight
(Temptation is the hard...est)

[verse 2]
I do believe existence is preceding our essence
Prepubescent the last time I ever talked up to heaven
Not the message, so when referring to blessings
I reap exactly what I sow while I'm enjoying the present (that's all we got)
Beginning to acknowledge the minimal
Taking a journey love getting lost in the interval
Taking for granted relationships is so criminal
When you abandon ship my reaction's so visceral
Now I'm getting pissed cause I ask for so little
And you're killing what we had, but here comes the acquittal
You're not accountable - I say that you're outta control
Your resolve is too brittle to solve the problems we hold
And the result is you masking your self-hate with a dream
Blame inadequacies on the system being a scheme
You're weaker than I thought, enjoy drifting to sea
Sacrificing the dream is your only chance to be free

[bridge]
Steady looking through this telescope
(What you see? What you see? What you see?)
Nothing can prevent it so we better cope
(Best believe, best believe, best believe)
At the moment something's getting in the way
(What you see? What you see?)
But before you know it, it'll be another day
(Damn right baby, it'll be another day)
