lyrics

Tell me what it feels like
To live life like you're on your own
And go to sleep every night
Wondering if this is really your home
And if you're really alright
Why are you still looking for more?
And you might not think that I am right or polite
But I can tell you what you're looking for

Come on, come on
Don't you wanna know, wanna know
The Meaning of Life
You can't, you won't find it in your heart
You've gotta look up and out to see who you really are

Do you believe in God?
Or do you just believe in yourself?
'Cuz one will make you honest
And the other will just lead you to Hell
Who do you think that you can trust?
Your fragile heart or the One who made it to beat
Who do you think can make you sing?
Your empty lungs or the One who made you to breathe

Tell me what it feels like
Are you being honest?
Tell me what it feels like

Tell me what it feels like
Cuz your life is passing by and you don't even know why you even try
Because if you're honest, you don't want this
It's just a shell of reality, and just a hell of what's meant to be
This complexity vexes and hexes me
Just like alchemy, you take a bunch of worthless things hoping for gold
But it's not chemistry
The pieces need to fit, and you just need to admit
That the life that you aspire to does not create a fire in you

'Cuz to desire is to seek, and to seek is to find
And to find is to live, and to live is to die
And to die is to change, and to change is to grow
And to grow is to think, and to think is to know
And to know is to feel, and to feel is to do
And to do is to love, and to love is the Truth
And the Truth is to guide, and to guide is to speak
And to speak is to believe, and to believe is to see, yeah
