"The Philosopher" lyrics

"The Philosopher"

Under the weight
How you make me feel
Recognized in the new disguises
I need more time to deal
Between imagined and real

Waves in silence
Whatever you are thinking
Save the violence
Whatever you are dreaming

Falling away
Don't let appearances fool you
There's no logical harm done
With only one to rule you
Life but how to live it

Waves in silence
Whatever you are thinking
Save the violence
Whatever you are dreaming, feeling
Safe from a distance
Safe for an instant
For an instant

Waves in silence
Whatever you are thinking
Save the violence
Whatever you are dreaming, feeling
Dreaming, feeling
