Early Morning Zen Lyrics

I stay in a room, so late

Till it's early, till the sun shines in

In the window, through the glass, light bends

Like widow, all alone, no friends

On the meadow, where my mind reaches

Where it puts me in a dangerous mess

I just lay there, just wait for the end

Till the end comes, now I don't wanna attend

It's a trend, a repetitive cycle

I cast myself to a solitary isle

Clouds so grim, at the world's blank rim

Water so gray, and I just jump in

Sink down to the bed like a fish, no fin

When a storm comes, I don't feel that wind

I kinda like it, but I never know why

Don't fight it, never been a tough guy

Keep hiding, lose track of my spine

No guidance, never got in a line

I'm a calm guy, consistently shy

But I do try, be a little more mean

Getting the respect, no messing with me

Try and be a little happy, live heavenly

But what is heaven? Never seen

I ain't too religious, and I'm never gonna be

Praying is begging, won't ever see me on my knees

Anything I get I put the credit on me

Do I believe? I don't know

I think there's a lot more than what's below

The sky above, only hoping though

I'm rowing through a river, blue

Counting daisies on the bank

And one day I'll be pushing them too

Will it be soon? Can never tell

I'll sit it out, long days, crammed in a cell

Dust makes a haze, silence, a craze

Yet I remain in this very quiet place

And if the dust settles, though I know it won't ever

I could maybe then finally, get out of my ways
