Girafficorn - Lately Lyrics

Lately I've been thinking that there's something out there, something that I just can't see
And lately I've been feeling like I don't belong here, like this world's just not right for me

And I don't know what to believe in anymore
And just what are all of these visions I'm seeing
What are they for?

It's been a long time since I've felt at home
I'm surrounded by people who I don't know, forcing their ideals down my throat
This isn't a democracy, I don't get to vote
The weight of these questions on my back
If I clear my mind, I create a path
I won't have to meditate in a bubble of fiction or read any written word full of superstitions
That's not to say that I don't believe in any afterlife or god, 's' in parenthesis
But that's the thing I get to choose
Anyone who says otherwise can hang from a noose
I'd never give a speech to an unwilling audience
It's equivalent to stopping cogs with a socket wrench
We need the gears to mesh to have a perfect machine and that means not caring about what others believe

Lately I've been looking with a new perspective on my life
And Lately I've been so objective to what everyone sees as right

And I don't know what to believe in anymore
And just what are all of these visions I'm seeing
What are they for?
How can I escape from this world?
How can I get away?
How can I tell myself it's alright, when there's nothing I could say?
