"Ikigai" lyrics

"Ikigai"

Disconnected, I lost myself
In the static again
There ain't a broken system
If everybody shares addiction

Is it possible to relate to the world
If everything is viewed through the lens of narcissistic distraction?
The chemical ache that we are fightin' these days
Takes us further away from the compassion we so desperately crave

Wide awake don't we all want to be somebody that the world really needs?
Nowadays it's hard not to see yourself in every strangers face
It's a numbers game

Mirror cabinet carve a hole inside your chest
Take a look around each corner
Life lost in disorder
Mirror cabinet carve a hole inside your chest
Take a look around each corner
All life lost

Wide awake don't we all want to be
A somebody that the world really needs?
The truth always lies somewhere in between
Ikigai
Reconnected
Reconnected

Forever craving always something we need
Look in between revolution of empathy
'Cause truth always lies in between
Ikigai

Eyes open wide awake
But disengaged
Wide awake
But disengaged
Wide Awake
Disengaged
Fast asleep
