lyrics

I barely exist
I barely exist
Confusion
How can I resist?

What a strange time it is to decide
What it is we are inside
What a strange time to decide
Who it is we are

Hello lonely little mind
Be not twisted or unkind
Be at rest from time to time
Thoughtlessness, a lucky find

Pulling all sorts of faces
And the feelings are tasteless
The change is just on the face of it
Nothing stirs, nothing sits

Hello bright holy machine
Sent forth boldly ‘cross the sea
Pick me up, rinse me clean
Show me what to dream

How hollow do I need to be?
So hollow that you’ll never see
Beneath the mask of anything

Pulling all sorts of faces
And the feelings are tasteless

As the learned few talked paradise
Their high ideals would’ve made you smile
At the water’s edge you closed your eyes
The clear blue sky

What a strange time to decide
What it is we are inside
What a strange time it is when we find
That the ones we love have died

The change is just on the face of it
Nothing stirs, nothing sits
The change is just on the face of it
Nothing stirs, nothing sits

I barely exist
But I really exist
What a wonderful gift
It is to barely exist
