illbert - detached lyrics

[verse]
it was less than a perfect match
the photo to the negative
since i’ve confessed i’ve been turning back
the clocks searching through my memories knowing i could never give
the beneficial doubt to myself
worried i’ve been hiding what i am about from myself
what’s it mean to go to heaven just to have a cloud to yourself
and they say the proud go to h+ll, while i’m meaning well
there could be compelling evidence
no telling how wrong i might have been ever since
i’ve been selling out thinking my opinions are indicative
while your criticism still exists, through the thickest mist
i’ve been picking ignorance my vision isn’t twenty+twenty
so there’s plenty reason to believe
i haven’t spent enough energy seizing all the means
of producing empathy, i’m confused to say the least
please excuse me i’m not used to being seen by other human beings

[chorus]
tell me what you see
i need a new tether to reality
because whether i’ve been alicing in wonderland
i need to understand the fallacies that martyrdom demands
once you start to come to terms with departure from the land of the free
you can earn a reputation that’s consistent with the mirror
even if they’re just imagination i’m insisting
that we listen clearer till the whispers disappear
[verse]
if i’ve lived a dozen lives then in the first eleven
i was unapprised of the hundred miles separating earth and heaven
of all the days between my birth and death enough unwisely
spent on idolizing biased versions of events
first impressions can be permanent certain etiquette determines many worries
that i’m burdened with, you’re the judge, jury, and
executioner, searching the minutiae for
a clue referring you to the conclusion lurking in my head
what’s more real, the version that i perceive
or the person you’ve been documenting on arrival
laving all the chance behind to honor my aversion to deceit
it’s been tantalizing to imagine, ponder, and believe
that i’m actually the me that i ought to be, tell myself i gotta be
operating in my own autonomy is obsolete
nominating me to be deleted
so i’m offering an opportunity to intervene
it’s pretty simple all i need to do is be a little nimbler
following the truth, no more living in the singular
so many things to learn, see the tinder burning
if i want to fight a fire better search for little warnings
