Chiasm – Formula lyrics

Kick
Snare
Kick
Release me

No peace

Kick
Snare

The clones they want to be
You'll never find in me
They yearn to be the same
How could they be so plain?
They wanted love too much
Come here and beg to touch
I'll hold onto the truth
And grasp onto my youth

Repeated jealous phobia
I know it's just a formula

What is normal?
What everyone else is and you are not
What is normal?
What everyone else is and you are not

When will there be something rare
You know someone has got to care
All that lingers everywhere is never-ending kick-snare

Kick
Snare
Insert sample here

"Eh... alright... okay... Let's proceed."

Release me

I'll never be the same
I'm left with what remains
Of what they thought was lost
I'll have to bear the cost
For years I tried to do
All that could not be true
I'll have to learn to be
What lurks inside of me

The way you once were with me then
(The clones they want to be)
Reminded me you were a friend
(You'll never find in me)
And now that we've remained apart
(They yearn to be the same)
I've found another's broken heart
(How could they be so plain?)
Alone I've cried and felt the pain
(They wanted love too much)
We'll have through life again, again
(Come here and beg to touch)
But love will heal our souls at last
(I'll hold onto the truth)
And let us live without the past
(And grasp onto my youth)

Repeated jealous phobia
I know it's just a formula
