Lyrics for Rilkean Heart (Acoustic Version)

Rilkean heart, I looked for you To give me transcendent experiences To transport me out of self and aloneness And alienation into a sense of Oneness and connection ecstatic and magical I became a junkie for it I come looking for the next high And I'm sorry I've been putting the search on the wrong place I understand that you're confused Feeling overwhelmed Well, that's a feeling state from then The reality that much Become truly self-reliant and become connected With something beyond me That is where I have to go I'm so sorry I've been putting the search on the wrong place You're lost and don't know what to do That's not all of you That's your reality today And that is all okay
