Artificial Paradise - Same God (2023 Version)

Spinning
In my mind
Just like the earth the rotation never stops
I feel consumed
Inside my head
Forever haunted by the things that it said
Echoes
In my heart
It's dancing ruthless
Got no rhythm or rhyme
There are no breaks
In this old train
Chugging endlessly like time on a string

Love
Is like the candy-coated complicated peace
That learns to hide behind our eyes

Keep shouting at the darkness
'Cause you're the only reason it stays
You know
It's only gonna hurt us
Lest we fear and welcome it
Inside the home that we break
And still it keeps me awake
I'll let it end for our sake
So snuff it out you gotta conquer your mind

My thoughts
Are hidebound
I heard a scream but nobody was around
Just my own breath
Through frozen air
Too troubled by your inconvenience to care
Your drug
And your help
You've got the same god as everybody else
Still I complain
About the ordinary
But hell it's all I've ever wanted to be

Life
Is like the perfect dreams of everybody else
But I just keep on waking up

I can't keep falling backwards
Through everything they told me before
On par with all the angels
Still no mercy with the endless game
And make it a chore
To fight myself evermore
The present leaving me worn
Because the future is a slave to the past

Life can't be taught
It can only exist
Through the lens of your perception
That hides your soul behind your sins

Succumb (You can't keep wasting your time)
To the pills (Get your head back in line)
That keep you in reality (Too many ways you could die)
(But only one kind of life, right?)
Under the sheet of my own
Domineering disease

If I could only exist
With some control of this drifting
Because I'm only my self-awareness
Dreaming to forever be free
