REM - The Lifting Lyrics
Grounded, 5 a.m., the nightlite is comfortingBut gravity is holding you.Once settled into sleep,You have watchedOn repeat the story of your lifeAcross the ceilingAnd in review.Youve said the air was singing.Its calling you, you dont believe.These things youve never seen.Good morning, how are you?The weathers fine,The sky is blue.Its perfect for our seminar.Now close your eyes and start to breathe,Allow the noise to recede,Allow yourself to drift and fly away.But you just stay.Youve said the air was singing,Its calling you, you dont believeThese things youve never seen,Never heard.Did you hear these voices?Did you hear these voices calling?Did you hear these voices calling you?Locked into a conference room,Were only what our minds assumeAnd rationale is leaving you.This conceit these systems of beliefYour counselor agreesYou always mark these boundaries now youre freeAnd with relief.Youve said the air was singing,Its calling you, you dont believeThese things youve never seen,Never heard, never dreamed.You said the air was singing,Its calling you, you dont believeThese things youve never seen,Never heard, never dreamed.Never, never, never...Once you had a dreamOf oceans and sunken cities,Memories of things youve never knownAnd you have left alone.
