Zen lyrics

I have known since I was young that I could separate myself

Trace along a synapse in my brain and take on someone else

Peak into a life that I have never known and tell their tales

Reach in my pockets with nothing but consciousness I tend to

Sit upon my hands until my heart achieves a state of zen

Scribble out my ego, pick up empathy and find a pen

Manifesting every word they thought of but they never said

Losing my consciousness in every pocket that I never had

I hope the sacrifice is worth it

Leave my heart inside another person

Always knew that I would find my purpose, living as a servant

Taking on the roles they can't let go

I hope the sacrifice is worth it

Leave my heart inside another person

Always knew that I would find my purpose

Living in the service of another soul

I decipher voices in my head that never show their face

Translate all I can before they seem to go their separate ways

Share it with the world and maybe back to where and which it came

Feel like a prophet, with cursory cognisance because I am

Fumbling with sand each grain just one of my plans

I don't know how to be more than I am

But I hope if I stay right here I'll understand

I hope the sacrifice is worth it

Leave my heart inside another person

Always knew that I would find my purpose, living as a servant

Taking on the roles they can't let go

I hope the sacrifice is worth it

Leave my heart inside another person

Always knew that I would find my purpose

Living in the service of another soul

If you knock once or twice

I'll invite you to share my design

I'll let you visit my thoughts

If you stay in your spot

And you never try crossing that line

If I lend you my hand

Would you lend me some time with your mind

I'll write down all that you want

'Cause I learn quite a lot

When I live through these lives that aren't mine

I hope the sacrifice is worth it

Leave my heart inside another person

Knew I'd always find my purpose, as a servant

Taking on the roles they can't let go

I hope the sacrifice is worth it

Leave my heart inside another person

Always knew that I would find my purpose, living as a servant

Taking on the roles they can't let go

I hope the sacrifice is worth it

Leave my heart inside another person

Always knew that I would find my purpose

Living in the service of another soul
