I'm just an ordinary guy, I know the deal
Only what we perceive to be is what is real
Though I've designed myself to never see it clear
Bent through the sentimental lense of 'how it feels'
Living
Turns out it wasn't all that hard to figure out
Time is just everything pushing everything else
I only wanted to be simple, to be clear
But all that drives me is this elemental fear
Of living
I breathe it in, I breathe it out
The smog of understanding
That to be anything at all can verge of too demanding
Inside my mind, it's like I see the universe expanding
But put to words it's just the sound of everything colliding
