Grounded 5 A.M. The night lite is comforting But gravity is holding you Once settled into sleep You have watched on repeat The story of your life Across the ceiling And in review You've said the air was singing It's calling you you don't believe These things you've never seen "Good morning, how are you? The weather's fine, the sky is blue It's perfect for our seminar Now close your eyes And start to breathe Allow the noise to recede Allow yourself to drift and fly away But you just stay You've said the air was singing It's calling you you don't believe These things you've never seen Did you hear these voices calling Locked into a conference room "We're only what our minds assume And rationale is leaving you This conceit these systems of belief Your counselor agrees "You've always mark these boundaries now you're free And with relief You've said the air was singing It's calling you you don't believe These things you've never seen You've said the air was singing It's calling you you don't believe These things you've never seen Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Never Once you had a dream Of oceans, and sunken cities Memories of things you've never known
