♫Why are You Still Here?♫

All of a sudden, I just wrote this song a short time ago, and so, even though I did not intend to publish any songs for a while, this song is still here despite my best efforts at restraint. Oh well.

Lyrics;

You talk about a simulation... singularity

You talk about your nightmares

as if they were destiny

but you don’t even know who you are.

How did you ever get this far?

How did you ever get this far?

The World of time and space is one big mirror

It’s where your hopes and fears seem to be real

nothing that you hear or see composes a reality

The senses bind the mind in its struggle to be free

I wonder how you ever got this far

I wonder how you ever got this far.

The World is ruled by magic

and dark hearts on the wind

and you will never find yourself

In the places where you’ve been

The mind is the magician

who made the labyrinth

where lifetime follows lifetime

and none of it makes sense

Still... on and on you go

and you have no idea

Please give me the reason

You think you are here

How can it be possible that you are still alive,

When it’s clear that you are just too stupid to survive?

You bought into the lies you learned in school

and mindless rumors are your daily bread

Why does all this colored shit

hang like curtains in your head?

You’re in love with your abuser.

What forced you to choose her?

What made you think that she was real?

Take a breath and tell me,

how does this make you feel?

Do you think you’re still alive?

What is all this shuck and jive?

The World is ruled by magic

and dark hearts on the wind

and you will never find yourself

In the places where you’ve been

The World is like a wild horse.

You’d better learn to ride

Maybe you are better off

with a place to hide

The reason no one likes you

is because you hate yourself

Maybe you should fall in love

and hate somebody else

and why are you still here?

Why are you still here?

You don’t know if you are crazy.

You don’t know if you are sane.

You keep looking at the sky

like you’re expecting rain

One day, when it does

It will prove you right

Like the time you found the moon

in the middle of the night

Will it suddenly be gone

if you close your eyes?

You snuck up on yourself

and it cut you down to size.

The World is ruled by magic

and dark hearts on the wind

and you will never find yourself

In the places where you’ve been

The World is ruled by magic

and dark hearts on the wind

and you will never find yourself

In the places where you’ve been

Not in the places where you’ve been

Not in the places where you’ve been

Not in the places where you’ve been
