i am too aware of the simplicity that nobody else can see
i can't lose sight of the easy way to accomplish things
others can get lost in the pointless mess on their way to success
whereas gold is not where i'm aiming so i don't need to compete

the height of my own mountains is more than i thought i built
now i can't even climb them, they conquered me themselves
still simply i know that with one earthquake they can crumble
so i guess i need to focus and let my brain erase it all

society has built a complex system to stay in tact of
for anyone who goes against it must pay the rightful act of
apologising with no meaning, sitting in silent without a purpose
'just do what is in the rules because society wants it'

but what if we're so aware, must we still speak in circles
if you want to let your feelings be known just spit it out, no whirlpools
maybe there is a reason behind the nonsense structure
so that everyone knows how to live without giving too much of themselves to capture

the truth is who we are is still hidden inside
despite the promises and laws we make, we're still hidden in lies
the true ones who don't think what you think are somewhere hidden
and maybe if life wasn't this way they could've not been so distant

the truth untold from this story, is that this is all a lie
just like the fact that you're busy today or that i am myself on the outside
the way humanity is perceived is still beyond a shadow
started off fighting in wars, now we're fighting our own troubles
