Lyrics
You're always finding out
You consistently discover
About the things that people never talk about
About topics avoided in conversation
I didn't ask to know
I didn't seek this knowledge
But now I'm compensating as I go
But now I'm adjusting as I proceed
I know the script I'm in
I understand the role I'm playing
I'm only thoughts of heaven trapped in flesh and skin
I'm spiritual thoughts confined within a physical body
And from the world of men
Attempting to conform to societal expectations
I try to tighten up the code again
Trying to refine my behavior again
And the code is a play
The "code" represents life
A play is a song
Life is like a theatrical performance
A song is a film
Comparing life to a song
A film is a dance
Life is akin to a dance
Boot me up on the Zen Machine
Initiate me into a state of enlightenment
Log me onto the Zen Machine
Connect me to a state of enlightenment
Load me down
Overwhelm me
Everybody get ready
Everyone, prepare yourselves
Hook me into the Zen Machine
Plug me into a state of enlightenment
Sharing time on the Zen Machine
Participate in enlightenment together
Load me up
Immerse me
Everybody get ready
Everyone, prepare yourselves
Sometimes it's clear to me
Occasionally, I comprehend deeply
Then for a moment I'm in timeless ecstasy
Experiencing a moment of profound bliss
There are no reasons why
There are no rational explanations
And everyone's a passer-by
Everyone is just passing through
But when they've gone to bed
When others are asleep
A fire's burning on the screen and in my head
A fascination captivates my thoughts
And on a windy day
Under specific conditions
You can smell it from a mile away
Its presence is detectable from afar
And the smell is a note
The presence signifies something
A note is a taste
An indication translates into a sensation
A taste is a hue
A sensation translates into perception
A hue is a touch
Perception translates into contact
