Safe / Sane

You’ve been spending lots of time up in the attic / I’ve been awake so long
Why don’t you come down now and have some food / Wish I could rest my head
You know you can’t hide from all the static / I’ve learned to levitate
It’s a life you lead but not one you choose / Now I don’t touch the ground
It’s all the same all the same
 
How can it be safe when it’s just not sane?
How can it be sane when it’s all the same?
 
And you must know you’re not degenerate / My dreams are lucid now
Even if that’s what they said to you / My body drifts away
You can take what you want from it / Back when the earth was round
And leave this quiet life of solitude / I could be back someday
It’s all the same all the same
 
How can it be safe when it’s just not sane?
How can it be sane when it’s all the same?
 
Couldn’t close my eyes when my eyelids were nowhere to be found
I’ve learned to sleep with my eyes open and I am not afraid of the dark anymore
