Mind Songtext
von Sleeping At Last

First, the ground rules get established

Memory is historically inaccurate

But repetition, repetition sings
Till finally the melody is sacred, rooted, unchanged

Patterns form and feel important
The starting lines of a living blueprint

All this information in formation is key
To draw a distinction between waking life and our dreams


It overwhelms the nervous system
This fearful constant state of comparison
In our grey matter, all grey matters
An embarrassment of riches in our heads
We gravitate to black or white instead
We were designed to send mixed signals
One image made up of different pixels
All subject to interpretation

Till binary systems, binary systems run
And the vibrancy of everything becomes zeros and ones

Patterns form and feel important
It′s the first brush stroke of a self-portrait
