The Lifting Lyrics

Grounded, 5 a.m.
The nightlife is comforting
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 said you found the lifting
But you don't believe in anything
These things we've never seen

Good morning, and how are you?
The weather's fine, the sky is blue
It's perfect for the seminar
Now close your eyes and start to breathe
Allow the noise to recede
And allow yourself to drift and fly away
But you just stay

You said you found the lifting
But you can't believe in anything
These things we've never seen

Last night I was sleeping

These conceited systems
I belief your counselor agrees
You always mask these ways of marking time
And with relief

You think you found the lifting
But you can't believe in anything
These things you've never seen, never, never

You said you found the lifting
But you can't believe in anything
These things we've never seen

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

Grounded, 5 a.m.
The nightlife is comforting
Gravity is holding you
