lyrics

do I have to be reincarnated? re-emitted with less cognition
less thinking of thoughts but more time to rot - now I'm wisps of ashes displaced by gusts
and anything I can't do can be misconstrued as true - any one's idea I can only subdue
and I think therefore I am a self-indulgent narcissist and a thousand other words but their meaning is unsure

darkness eclipses the illumination - amnesia and happiness have a correlation
learned that drowning through love is how life is lost - took and inferno to extract the cost
like I had so much to be selfish for - inside I was empty like a shell on a shore
and when I cracked I echoed because of lack of interior - thought nothing was important and I was inferior

for so long I claimed I had no vision - finally found I was the opposition
how could I be the worst of men - no longer opaque I am a transparent gem
fire's not destruction it's the light that's love - as the glow reflects off sooted turtle doves
I found something in that endless repetition - something like a series of chemical reactions

so as in fire or as in love I provide the fuel found the meaning in yule
don't sit around as time withers away and you complain and don't make a change
you're living for you but you've got to live for them
ain't that life oh ain't that life
