I hear a song playing on repeat
As if something's new
The chorus is trying to compete
With whats in plain view
Lately i've tried to let it play
But not sing along
To see what will happen when it fades
If theres another song
Though soon i hear
Approaching so elegantly
These lyrics
Back from the rear
As if I'm the one that's singing
Though soon it's clear
Although affectionately
It's still this
Absurd veneer
That is hopelessly clinging
But under the voice there's an empty space
With my head inside, i'm depressurizing
In this and now
I'm falling into an unending grace
No hiding place, no desensitizing
Just this and now
The next part sounds better to my ears
The path to peace of mind
The melody says I'm getting near
Just this and that to find
Although something is telling me to stop
To stay with what is here
To see what it is that cannot drop
See what did not appear
And soon i hear
Approaching so elegantly
These lyrics
Back from the rear
As if I'm the one that's singing
And soon it's clear
Although affectionately
It's still this
Absurd veneer
That is hopelessly clinging
But under the voice there's an empty space
With my head inside, i'm depressurizing
In this and now
I'm falling into an unending grace
No hiding place, no desensitizing
Just this and now
