Waiting for Connection - The Fog Inside Lyrics

Wake up!
Trying to escape
Thin air won't let me breathe
Like the burden of existing
Forces me to my knees
Lost deeply
Just can't see any light
There's insignificance
Always on my side
Going through the world
With a tunnel vision - numb to all the beauty
That lays there at the wayside, waiting for us to be seen
So, I ask you
How can we be so blind?
Following a straight path
Restrain the void inside
So, is this our destiny?
Living a fast-paced life without serenity?
Determined by our future and past
And so, the loss of the present will last
Internalized motivation
Turned to suffocation
Hold on, take a step back
Find yourself in the moment
We have to leave the path of just existing
To find a way of being alive
So, I ask you
How can we be so blind?
Following a straight path
Restrain the void inside
So, is this our destiny?
Living a fast-paced life without serenity?
Determined by our future and past
And so, the loss of the present will last
Internalized motivation
Turned to suffocation
Hold on, take a step back
Find yourself in the moment
We have to leave the path of just existing
To find a way of being alive
So, I tell you
I won't be so blind
Questioning the path
To overcome the void inside
This won't be my destiny
Forget the blindfolded life
Without serenity
Not determined by future and past
And so, a deeper connection will last
The fog of my own transience encases me
It irrupts my lungs and takes my breath away
But now is the time
To change the perspective
Just ignore what they say
Never fear to be the misfit
But now is the time
To change the perspective
Just ignore what they say
Never fear to be the misfit
Internalized motivation
Turned to suffocation
Hold on, take a step back
Find yourself in the moment
We have to leave the path of just existing
To find a way of being alive
Internalized motivation
Oh, it turned to suffocation
So, ask yourself: Have you reached clarity?
Dissolving gloom inside instead of just to be

Wake up!
Trying to escape
Thin air won't let me breathe
Like the burden of existing
Forces me to my knees
Lost deeply
Just can't see any light
There's insignificance
Always on my side
Going through the world
With a tunnel vision - numb to all the beauty
That lays there at the wayside, waiting for us to be seen
So, I ask you
How can we be so blind?
Following a straight path
Restrain the void inside
So, is this our destiny?
Living a fast-paced life without serenity?
Determined by our future and past
And so, the loss of the present will last
Internalized motivation
Turned to suffocation
Hold on, take a step back
Find yourself in the moment
We have to leave the path of just existing
To find a way of being alive
So, I ask you
How can we be so blind?
Following a straight path
Restrain the void inside
So, is this our destiny?
Living a fast-paced life without serenity?
Determined by our future and past
And so, the loss of the present will last
Internalized motivation

Hold on, take a step back
Find yourself in the moment
We have to leave the path of just existing
To find a way of being alive
