lyrics

(Why is it so tough?)
To realize what you really need
(When enough is enough)
Will you give up on your one dream?

Well it's so hard to commit your intentions to just one thing in your life
but life is harder when you have no light to follow.

So you walk blindly into the night-
the further you get the more lost you are.
Or so it seems to be to me-
How can I escape this reality?

All your intentions and efforts and work that you've done-
add it all up and you get none in return
but why you can't discern

For you to be free you need to truly see-
finding meaning is illusionary.
For you to be free you need to truly see.
Wake up and realize there is no meaning.

As your path continues you come to a stop
and off his white horse the cloaked figure drops.
Your impending doom spawns a thought upon you-

This quest in life in which you've been trying to achieve
will never lead to anything.

Embrace the absurdity and you will see-

For you to be free you need to truly see-
finding meaning is illusionary.
For you to be free you need to truly see.
Wake up and realize there is no meaning.

But the search for your gold is worth more than all the treasures in this world.

For you to be free you need to truly see-
finding meaning is illusionary.
For you to be free you need to truly see.
Wake up and realize there is no meaning.
