Island in the Clouds Lyrics

Embryonic All I wanted was to disappear It's ironic 'Cause there's a chance that I could make it here Inferior response To the experience of consciousness we're gifted A symbiotic Secular spirituality Fear in our hearts, the lost are rarely found We're never far from the island in the clouds It's symbolic I never thought that life could find a way Now it dawns on me No creature here was built to be contained I've seen the way you propagate A need for empty paraphernalia So fall upon me Too blind to see the error of your ways In this smog of blame Fear in our hearts The lost are rarely found But we're never far From the island in the clouds As we stare into the sun They reveal themselves to us In the abstinence of creed We submit to reason Dogs of war we let slip Kindness I could kill you with The passion of a Judas kiss Blinding lights, we blinked and missed Our heads above the parapet Larger than our lives appeared With one foot in Elysium Sensing the adventure's kicking in Seraphim servants cry Havoc from the jaws of time A mouth of madness opens wide Bark as sharp as she can bite An ocean of a thousand knives Ripples through our future lives Our best intentions soon backfire You picked your bones But never made this right Fear in your soul A coil tightly bound But we'll never fall From the island in the clouds As we stare into the sun They reveal themselves to us In the abstinence of creed We submit to reason
