It was me
It was me
It was me
What do you want to know about meditation?
What do you want to know about the brain?
I only went looking for these things
When I knew I was going insane
I thought my mind would grow calmer
Like a pond in the morning rise
But as the years went longer
The wisdom was but a disguise
It was me
It was me
It was me
A masked version of love
A heart behind a stone
Attempts at intertwining
Were at best a distant tone
Long before I could tell
A footless one I became
Traversing the world far and wide
The ground I could not name
It was me
It was me
It was me
It was me
A touch of the toe on the earth below
Would sting like the hottest of coals
What good was it to feel a body
When I could rest inside my soul
What good is a soul without a body?
What good is god without your mind?
You can't believe in nothing
If you can't feel what's inside
It was me
It was me
It was me
It was me
It was me
Sensation, oh, sensation
A mystical conversation
What told me I knew the answer?
When I was so far from creation?
Tethered to the contemplation
Of a thought galaxies away
There was nothing out there
There was nothing in here
And nothing is here to stay
That was me
That was me
That was me
It was me
That was me
It was me
All I know is a feeling
It makes me feel good or bad
I don't know what those words mean
And I don't know what I am
But no longer I look for the answer
From whence I did before
Like a gust of wind on a hot summer's day
I become the dust once more
