We are all that's left
But is that enough in this modern age?
Scrape blessings off our shoes, pray to our phones, and get high
So many sharks in the water
Not gonna be one of those lucky people who feels no pain when they die
I'm running out of ways to pacify myself
Feels less like the modern age with no books on your shelf
Can we go back to the days we lived in caves?
Do we really want it all if it all just feels the same?
I know I don't have the right to give you good advice
I'm just another lost soul in the present tripping over myself
And I know our circuit board hearts are mourning
No validation in digital blood
Can we go back to the days we lived in caves?
Do we really want it all if it all just feels the same?
When I'm alone at night, I can't hide it no more
I wanted more for myself
But there's no making it right
When you're looking for light outside of yourself
We are all that's left
But is that enough in this modern age?
Scrape blessings off our shoes, pray to our phones and get high
So many sharks in the water
Not gonna be one of those lucky people who feels no pain when they die
I'm running out of ways to pacify myself
Feels less like the modern age with no books on your shelf
Can we go back to the days we lived in caves?
Do we really want it all if it all just feels the same?
