Giving up Everything |
Giving up everything |
The fortune I was saving |
Giving up everything |
I mercy-killed my craving |
Giving up everything |
I’ve opened up my eyes for this |
Giving up everything |
See the whole magnificent emptiness |
Gave what I want for how it is |
For the stone inside and the bitterness |
For the sweetness at the core of it |
Giving up everything |
The master plan, the scheming |
Giving up everything |
My cursed search for meaning |
Giving up everything |
The compass and the map I was reading |
The hinterlands I’m leaving |
I’m finally leaving behind |
Giving up everything |
The big to-do, the hullabaloo |
The tug-of-war for some twisted truth |
For the everlasting ache of it |
No longer slave, not chained to it |
No gate, no guard, no keeper |
No guru, master, teacher |
See the slow-receding faces |
Dissolve to black, no traces |
