Stoic Lyrics

It's neither up nor down

Not a smile or frown

Nirodha

When you've compromised

Far too many times

Nirodha

Disassembling new iterations

To prepare for all situations

And I won't give up

The search for stimulus

Is a lifelong endeavour

If only forever

I know it's been

Said by many

But I'm pledging

To cease craving

We want to change but stay the same

I will take the path

Learn how to detach

Nirodha

But the key's control

Of the ebb and flow

Nirodha

It's hard to find novelty

Hard to appeal to me

It's hard to make a breakthrough

Hard to appeal to you

I know it's been

Said by many

But I'm pledging

To cease craving

We want to change but stay the same

Even if it is

Simply elusive

There must be value in

Working towards it

As everything's repurposed

To the chaos I submit

I know it's been

Said by many

But I'm pledging

To cease craving

We want to change but stay the same
