Lyrics

"Don't look!" they cried, with phoney smiles paisted on their faces
"Don't look!" they cried
"We've gone so far with this false confidence in our lives!"
It's the meaning of life that sends people scurrying
Building, investing, and achieving
It's the meaning of life that nobody knows
So we build our distractions to hide ourselves from its sight
The meaning of life gives us something to shoot for
Something to hope for. something to die for
It gives us hope that we can outrun a reality where this is all we have to live for

We live. we move. we breathe. we die

"Don't look!" they cried, with phoney smiles paisted on their faces
"Don't look!" they cried
"We've gone so far with this false confidence in our lives!"
On this surreal landscape we paint our dreams, our goals, our ambitions
On this surreal landscape we bide our time, claiming that there's never enough
Or is there too much?
For sometimes the motions grow old
These human inventions designed to create purpose
Don't always do the things I've been told
And the whispers inside ask if this is really why

I live. I move. I breathe. I die

I'm hiding lots of questions and I'm sure that it's been done before
"We don't want them exposed!" - to mask the hopelessness we're living for
"So force a smile today!" occupy all of your senses, hurry!
Before questions start to rise
"Don't get caught wanting answers!"
My friend, these are the days of our lives

Amassed with silver and gold, wealth will always be dead before it gets old
I cannot buy what I'm sold: that the fullness of life is what I've been shown
All that I'm looking for cannot be found inside this game
All that I'm looking for cannot be found if this is the fullness of why

I live. I move. I breathe. I die

Where can I flee from your presence?
If I make my bed in hell, you are there
The truth of life lies inside your hands
For we are your great pleasure - that's why you hold us here
Psalms 139
