While She Sleeps - ENLIGHTENMENT(?) Lyrics

If we're not suffering what happened yesterday
We're worried about what's going to happen tomorrow
How many more times are we gonna get tricked
By society and more importantly our own minds?
Why are we suffering ourselves? We've been fooled
To believing that there's something more to be had out there, away from ourselves
We've been drinking poison, thinking it's gonna quench our thirst
Stop believing all the lies that you have to buy this, you have do this, you have to become this
You are the authority of your own existence, no one else
Do you know that I'm gonna die one day?
Do you know that we're all gonna die one day?
We need to look at this now
Our mortality is the key to our freedom
You are enough, we are complete
Stand tall and know your fucking worth, together, right now

This is the part where we're done, we'll start over
All your negative thoughts, all you've lost, we'll let go
If you feel like giving up, then there's something I need you to know
That I'm here for you

Can we all just take a moment
And see what we've become?
We're all so lost and we know it
We're tired of waking up and feeling numb
But we all just sit and wonder
How do we define our love?
The more that I discover
That there's no me without us

Spill divine alibis as we drink them in
Tired of waking up and feeling numb
That sinking feeling
Our raptures begging the question "Does it feel right?"
Compassion's a weapon, now we're helpless on the other side
The sonder whispers something I need you to know
That I'm here for you

Can we all just take a moment
To see what we've become?
We're all so lost and we know it
We're tired of waking up and feeling numb
But we all just sit and wonder
How do we define our love?
The more that I discover
That there's no me without us

What's your plan of attack? The plan B that we never had
Say what you mean if you mean what you say
In the year of the rat, the blame hides in the rhetoric
All our errors now are perilous
This world is too much
It's time to give up the ghost in us
No strangers to grief
Enlighten me
It's time to let it all out
There's no me without

There's something ingrained
Something insatiable I can't betray
Something so deep that the tide doesn't change
It's okay to not be okay
I'm told that the world works in mysterious ways
And the more we search we get further away
It's okay to not be okay

There's something ingrained
Something insatiable I can't betray
Something so deep that the tide doesn't change
It's okay to not be okay
I'm told that the world works in mysterious ways
And the more we search we get further away
It's okay to not be okay
