Truth & Permanence (Bonus Track)

from Carbon Copy Trip by Aleya

/

about

This is an old track that I've reworked as the themes fit very comfortably with the album. You get it with album purchase.

lyrics

Unlike the child who sleeps,
You can't spend time counting sheep...
And unlike the blurry fall
Of age and learning into nought....
You've got the world around
Tell me what you've written down?
A sea of idle thought
Never seeking what you've sought

Pre-Chorus:
Formula's & sketches
Of all you see
Pretend
To show reality

Cho:
For the word "define"
Requires the finite
With a separation from the rest
And experience
Is the consequence
Of a universe that separates itself.

Verse 2:
Under the apple tree
You've got knowledge for a fee.
Your lifespan: short, defined;
You can't spend it killing time.
'Cause you've got the world around
Tell me, are your systems down?
Your brain, your eyes, your hands -
Tell me what happens to them?

Pre-Chorus:
Algebra & anthems
Of all of history
Pretend
To show reality

Cho:
As phenomena
Make a life abrupt & unchained,
I predict you see
Unfurling debris of Truth & Permanence.
