lyrics

Visions of one thousand eyes/ see which ones stare and which ones sigh/ can we know who we are?/ as it is found so it will come

Watching the signals all fade/ what's been lost brings what is gained

What is it trying to show me?

Nothing is imagined, nothing's real/ made up of perceptions and how it feels/ so what is waiting at the end?/ does it start all over again?

I'm watching the signals all fade/ what's been lost brings what is gained

What is it trying to show me?

Shedding societal skin/ it ends, let it begin/ so patient to know what will be/ truths too deep to know, too far to see

Still watching the signals all fade/ what's been lost brings what is gained

What is it trying to show me?
