lyrics
I don't mind the hours
I work all night, all night and day
Relishing the labor
To guard a shred of sanity
Striving for a balance, never found
Always moving forward, never slowing down
Long live a life prepared
What distracts us cannot stand
A constitution held so close
The blood is dripping from my hand
Forever at the mercy of opposing views
Living in the moment but also seeking truth
Sifting through the garbage to find the absolute
Searching for an answer...
Sheltered for a moment
It splinters with the ending song
Escape is just a fleeting comfort
It's never wise to stay too long
Striving for a balance, never found
Always moving forward, never slowing down
Long live a life prepared
What distracts us cannot stand
A constitution held so close
The blood is dripping from my hand
I'm looking for a beacon to guide me to the shore
But when I finally reach it, I find a thousand more
I'm running out of patience and reasons to explore
I'm searching for an answer...
I work all night, all night and day
Relishing the labor

Striving for a balance, never found

The blood is dripping from my hand
Forever at the mercy of opposing views
Living in the moment but also seeking truth
