The Depth Perception -

He leaps on towards a darkened sky

and he tries, oh, he tries

But these store bought wings they talk and sing

but never seem to fly

Clever words inspire with a voice that echoes soft and sweet

Fills the air with promise but his eyes they cannot see…

Between the tallest Castles

Beyond the green-lined streets

Where Sun becomes the shadow

A man seeks worth in the computer screen

His home it falls to shambles

Not because of absent green

The office becomes his family yet he still can’t see

No he still can’t see…

The refractions of a self made paralyzing paradigm

Finding truth in distortions

The broken path that’s traced

Seems to grow with every step we take

Searching for satisfaction

When the beautiful depth perception of life gets swept away (Swept away)

No choice but to swim in a daze!

We drown ourselves with waves of fear oh!

In a sea of prosthetic dreams

Existence, yes, but only by tradition

But you can’t see what’s cropped

When the vision’s lost

To a near sighted position

Is there something more to this picture?

What to do, what to do?

When the hunger we feed

Consumes us too, oh!

Yeah, there’s got to be a new depth perception

He swims with the sharks

Why can’t he see they fill the water with blood

He swims with the sharks

Why can’t he see they fill the water with blood

Wasting away he can’t see the miracle in this life

Just open up your eyes

Step back and open up your eyes!

Just open up your eyes

Your eyes

Your eyes

Your eyes

Your eyes!
