Cog On Video (MV)

I have heard that comfort killed ambition
(And) I have learned from this self-aware condition
I was told the happy life's worth fighting for
But it seems like suffering cannot be ignored Oohh

We are all reflexive representations
Bringing things to life through negation
We learn from what we think about how we feel
To create better symbols to redefine the real

Widows will be weeping
(And) Dreams are for the sleeping
(But) Death is always creeping
There's just one thing to be done
Cog on

What we see is never really/truly there
It's made of ideas that we've plucked out from thin air
Reality is separate from your thoughts
Can you know what is without knowing what is not?

Every moment's fleeting
(And) Some dreams are worth keeping
(But) Death is always creeping
There is one thing to be done
Cog on

Examine life free of supposition
It'll yield the clearest intuition
Ask why things appear as they do
(And) Determining your will, will be left to you

'Cuz that's what freedom is
Being a slave to yourself
I won't get my ideas
From anybody else
