	Story Behind the Song This is the second piece that I've done with vocals, so I'm still trying to find my "style" and range. My intention with this was for the vocals to kind of flow in with the music -- not to be a focal point -- and to sound slightly "robotic" without being actually vocoded (so typical). The lyrics were written directed at another person (a close friend, actually), but are mostly about myself... Which becomes evident in the last verse. Lyrics You want to be enlightened Well then be my guest I'll roll out blood red carpet For your almightyness I'll get down on my knees And I'll confess my sins Then I'll point right to the spot Where your head has been I've got no reserve When it comes to this If you don't see it by now Then I'd be happy to bless you With a third eye Open to your deluded mind And a soul that spawns emptiness Every time You want to be fulfilled Well it takes more than this You've got a long way to go To reach true happiness You can keep on fighting But then you'll never love And you'll never see the self That you decided to shove Back down to the depths Of your hollowed chest Where you've locked away the future For the past's regrets It pains me to see So I put hands to my head I could cry 'til I die I'd rather try instead To mend in myself Why I know you so well Will we ever break through this? Only time will tell I know there's more to life Than what we're shown But will we ever find it Alone?
