lyrics

It was all so simplistic to observe and decide,
A simple world optimistic with nothing to hide,
Saw reality as painfully objective,
My view of God was artfully unreflective,
Absolutes the foundation under my feet,
I’ve asked questions before but never this deep,

I was living someone else’s life and faith,
Questions the knife cutting lines that kept me safe,
Chorus:
I discovered that I’ve been wearing lenses,
I’ve put on a pair every year since I was young,
And they color everything I see,
And the more I look, the more all I see is me,

Words on a page, all of a sudden don’t speak their truth,
Now I’ve disengaged, from memories I thought were proof,
Religion of my childhood is falling apart,
The question is what now will guide my heart,

Everyone has a point of view,
Even a camera sees less than it excludes,
And so reality has begun to twist,
I cannot prove that I exist,

I created the lies the lenses filtered for me,
Now I’ve had a loss of all certainty,
I created the lies the lenses filtered for me,
I’m adrift, adrift in an unending sea,
(Chorus)
Everyone has a point of view,
Even a camera sees less than it excludes,
And so reality has begun to twist,
I cannot prove that I exist,
I cannot prove that I exist,
