It's been quite a while since I felt alive
Hit my peak, failed to speak, and started to jive
Just going and flowing with water after taking a deep diveUnaffected
Can't give a damn
Disconnected
Emotions stuck in a traffic jamFeeling nothing as if I am dead
Appealing to the god overhead
Dealing with only grief and dread
Kneeling in front of the pointless war aheadMaybe it's for my own good
If I don't feel joy, can't get hurt
I can't be misunderstood
If I leave all this and dare to desertThey say everything happens for good
What on Earth is the point of this then?
Why to sacrifice joy for falsehood?
If I won't feel anything ever againTo taste the holy drops of bliss
I am ready to pay struggle as a price
About sweet times, I reminisce
When I felt both nasty and nice, it really was paradiseWhat if it's been a while since I felt alive?
Hit a peak, a dip broke my streak but I did revive
I won't go with the flow of water but bring a tsunami, make every wave remember that dive
And witness how even on the seabed a rebel can thrive~~~~~~~~~~~~
