Mind
Sleeping at Last
[Intro] [Verse 1] First the ground rules get established Memory is historically inaccurate But repetition repetition sings Till finally the melody is sacred rooted unchanged [Verse 2] Patterns form and feel important The starting lines of a living blueprint All this information in formation is key To draw a distinction between waking life and our dreams Our dreams [Verse 3] It overwhelms the nervous system This fearful constant state of comparison In our grey matter all grey matters An embarrassment of riches in our heads We gravitate to black or white instead [Verse 4] We were designed to send mixed signals One image made up of different pixels All subject to interpretation Till binary systems binary systems run And the vibrancy of everything becomes zeros and ones Patterns form and feel important It’s the first brush stroke of a self-portrait
