lyrics

Lost in this raw data
Evaporated in the vapour
Boundaries blurring
A thinly stretched remainder
Lost in this raw data
Moments saved for later
Boundaries blurring
A thinly stretched remainder
In the data
A thinly stretched remainder
In the data
A thinly stretched remainder
Lost in raw data
Evaporated in vapour
Boundaries blurring
A thinly stretched remainder

Sorting through this process
Raw data composes
Structures taking form
My own osmosis
Temporary components
In my mind, explosions
Structures deepening
While I experience exposure
Wanting closure for thoughts
Find a way out this living morgue
Where my sense of self distorts
Facing full strength of force
On an unknown course
Wild elements don't pause
Thrown into the deep end
No ceremony on the shore
These ideas always abundant
Part of how I function
Abstract concepts
I find difficult to make adjustments
When things don't make sense
I can't ever try to pretend
Can't make any pretence
Thats not a useful defense
I can't tell tall tales on cue
Or say something that isn't true
I can only imagine and think
Doing so with nothing to prove
Raw data, thought stream
Sending me way off in a dream
Strands of odd figments
Putting together these themes

Lost in this raw data
Evaporated in the vapour
Boundaries blurring
A thinly stretched remainder
Lost in this raw data
Moments saved for later
Boundaries blurring
A thinly stretched remainder
In the data
A thinly stretched remainder
In the data
A thinly stretched remainder
Lost in raw data
Evaporated in vapour
Boundaries blurring
A thinly stretched remainder

Examining these pieces
A life spent building a thesis
Understanding pathology
Hidden meanings and reasons
Never completing chapters
New climates and factors
Ways to understand experience
Tell the real from the actors
Wanting distance from thoughts
A way out this living morgue
The faintest hint of life
Grab it before it vanishes and distorts
Facing full strength of desire
The flames making me perspire
Holding on to mirror images
A sense of compassion can't retire
These ideas are always racing
Though my mind, never vacant
Part of how I function
Abstract concepts make a statement
When things don't seem to fit
I can't try and persist
That's not a useful defense
I need to know why something exists
I search for answers and questions
Second guessing my own intention
Wondering if I did the the wrong thing
Or if the truth was too hard to mention
Raw data, thought stream
Sending me way off into a dream
Strands of new uncertainty
Making sense of these themes

Lost in this raw data
Evaporated in the vapour
Boundaries blurring
A thinly stretched remainder
Lost in this raw data
Moments saved for later
Boundaries blurring
A thinly stretched remainder
In the data
A thinly stretched remainder
In the data
A thinly stretched remainder
Lost in raw data
Evaporated in vapour
Boundaries blurring
A thinly stretched remainder
