what made you so vain?
satiated beyond reparation
submerged, declined
continue systematic exploration
supressed, stifled
despite the depravation
resist the pain
despite the aggravation
persist in vain
reveries of bliss in consummation
submerged, declined
a victim fallen to equivocation
supressed, stifled
despite the depravation
resist the pain
despite the aggravation
persist in vain
spoken:
anything that you grasp at, in the outer world;
whether it be relationship, money, fame, or drugs;
it's only going to disappoint you...
... if I fail...
... must persist...
... if I fail, then at least I had to opportunity...
... must persist...
... happiness comes only, peace comes only from connecting with who you really are...
sung:
what made you so vain?
despite the depravation
resist the pain
despite the aggravation
persist in vain

paving the road that you keep me on
but does it better me?
what's more to learn to make this right?
transfixed with awe, I see the light
yet far beyond my grasp
one corner turned, what's in my sight?
so chance will make this obvious
hold back you'll make it okay
was it taking you?
oh man you're trading me up
what makes you so drastic?
so when you've taken all these words
what's taken you back?
stop me tonight
for taking it to make you
walk with me tonight
stay over, take over your life
and I'll thank you not to make this just another night
paving the road that you keep me on
ten years to show what's left behind
wanted to know will you take me back home
but did you listen?
one chance you'll make me whole
but did you listen?
what makes you whole?
what can make you listen
I wasn't taking it
hold the brake with me tonight
say you won't break this
one chance to make it okay
one day you'll make me whole
I'll make you listen, stop me
only to take you home
and you know what makes me whole
spoken:
... wholeness, not only can't be obtained from outside of ourselves, but we're already home...
... if I fail, then at least I had the opportunity. why did this happen this way, why wasn't this totally successful? it's almost like, if we knew we were gonna live again, and the reason we come back to live again- and we hear this from time to time- it's because life as we know it is a learning experience, so when we come back to life again, it's because there's something that we didn't learn, that we needed to learn so that we could be elevated to another level...

floating through the mist that fogs the world from view
everything becomes a blur, everything that is not you
days made the same within your mind
chance stays away with what's left behind
floating throught the blur that holds the point of view
anything is overturned, anything to better you
days made the same within your mind
chance stays away with what's left behind
say you traded through
cheated all bets today
walking along the strait, bearing your arms
these days will remind you of changing away
standing behind you I'll take it all the same
these days will remind you of changing away
standing behind you I'll take it all the same
hope brings you light
you told me tonight
days change away
don't change your ways
nothing ever changes
these days will remind you of floating through
days change away
stay the same
takes you out
brings you love
say you love
floating through the mist that fogs the world from view
(floating through the mist)
everything becomes a blur, everything that is not you
(nothing changes)
and as you become the world, everything comes back to you
spoken:
in reality, there is only one of us. and the illusion that there is other, is simply that; an illusion...
... you are in it...
... we hear the heartbeat of another...
... you're experiencing it...
... and again, we end up returning simply to ourselves, because that's all there ever was in the first place...
.. an illusion...
sung:
is this life what it seems?
