Eyes Closed To The Dark

We wander, eyes closed to the dark
With less to guide us now than ever
Seemingly omnipotent, but more human and just as afraid

This ain't the place for my face in lights
I'm tight, driven, living in the fucking shadowless life

A nexus in the great human saga when we dared to trade the organizing bliss
Of good and evil, right and wrong for other opiates.
Any learnable system to replace what had begun to evaporate
For many, an era of hope, liberation, possibility
For others of abandonment and despair
We are beautifully, finally, achingly alone

This ain't the place for my face in lights
This ain't the place for my face in lights
I'm tight, driven, living in the fucking shadowless life

(Eyes closed to the dark)

We wander, eyes closed to the dark
With less to guide us now than ever
Seemingly omnipotent, but more human and just as afraid

This ain't the place for my face in lights
I'm tight, driven, living in the fucking shadowless life

Eyes closed to the dark
Eyes closed to the dark
