Coded Rezin - Paint the Sky Lyrics

Gotta give them something that they can't deny
So aim a little higher, try and paint the sky

Too many of us live
But we ain't alive
Going through the motions
And wait to die
Too many of us live
But we ain't alive
Going through the motions
And wait to die
Gotta give 'em something that they can't deny
So aim a little higher, try and paint the sky
Gotta give 'em something that they can't deny
So aim a little higher, try and paint the sky

The seconds stretch into minutes, never stopping to break
As I devour the hours, 'til I get off the page
Cause I'm sitting and staring at vision impairing computer
That sooner or later is gonna rot my brain
While the fables of cable I know are plotting away
To stop my train of thoughtful waves
Cause every time I turn on the television, I turn inanimate
Agitated and out of it, until I lost the day
But I can't stop, it'll cost the game
Just one more level until the hall of fame
Nothing but distraction
Under a mask acting
Proving to you even the strongest cave
Forgetting to feed on the sun's cosmic rays
And replace it with a hundred thousand watt buffet
Til I finish and remember everything I could've done
And every little bit of sun has now gone to grey

Too many of us live
But we ain't alive
Going through the motions
And wait to die
Too many of us live
But we ain't alive
Going through the motions
And wait to die
Gotta give 'em something that they can't deny
So aim a little higher, try and paint the sky
Gotta give 'em something that they can't deny
So aim a little higher, try and paint the sky

Is there a reason on Earth for me to observe the green grass?
A Earthy yellow of the beach sand?
Why watch the sea, why see the sky
Why feast your eyes on white clouds that breeze past
Looking at red roses and lavender orchids
Why take in nature and the magic rewarded
Of a beautiful horizon, you couldn't even try
To describe the warmth you were restored with
Why take the time, why raise an eye
To appreciate a certain shade of brown in the trees
Why acknowledge all of my surroundings
That's all around me
Notice all that's astounding, right down to the little things
Why would you ever get up imagining
All the wonderful, subtle, little colors of your bigger dreams
When you could be sitting at home, alone
With a remote control, staring at a silver screen

Too many of us live
But we ain't alive
Going through the motions
And wait to die
Too many of us live
But we ain't alive
Going through the motions
And wait to die
Gotta give 'em something that they can't deny
So aim a little higher, try and paint the sky
Gotta give 'em something that they can't deny
So aim a little higher, try and paint the sky
