lyrics

at night, i try and sleep but find no meditation
close my eyes but open mind to million thoughts awaiting
ruminate away the hours till the day
caught somewhere between a maniac and genius in the making
caught somewhere inside a maze with a treasure for the taking
the descartes of this day and age
and my middle name is galileo, i'm trying to break out of this cage
after self observation became a mental slave trade
now i haven't slept in a least three days
the only time im satisfied is when i'm faded
still trying to change these ways
a little drank, a little drug - thats my safety blanket
and ive seen a thought take over the man who made it
thoughts from a mind i been trying to change it
a juggling ball for fate to play with
but my word is my thought lets see how far i take it

at night, im wide awake
so many things to do but not enough time a day
a crying shame, time we arrange for someone else
replace the time we make to take advantage of the self, micro manage life for wealth
blind to the damage that is dealt, its a world war
what a world to explore
lifes short and too many end premature
friends lost in the allure
cuz we wanna do it all and more
the universe is heliocentric
so we dream of being stars at the center of attention
like the sun, shining buncha money to fold
but in doing so, throw all our beliefs into suspension
mid-air, dead space met with dead stares
past hopes turn to black holes, been there
you don't need a telescope to see just what's at risk here
the planet and the mad humanity that live there
