Lyrics for Vitamin

I'm born. I'm alive. I breathe In a moment or two I realize That the sphere, upon which I reside Is asleep on it's feet Should I go back to sleep? I'm born. I'm alive. I breathe In a moment or two I realize That the sphere, upon which I reside Is asleep on it's feet Should I? Should I? Should I go back to sleep? You stare at me like I'm a vitamin On the surface you hate, but you know you need me I come dressed as any pill you deem fit Whatever helps you swallow the truth, all the more easily We orbit the sun. I grow up My open eyes see a zombified, somnambulist society Leaving us as vitamins for the hibernating human animal Do you? Do you? Do you see what I mean? You stare at me like I'm a vitamin On the surface you hate, but you know you want me I come dressed as any pill you deem fit Whatever helps you swallow the truth, all the more easily And I wonder, will you digest me? Into the sleep machine I won't plug in In fact I'd rather die before I will comply To you my friend, I write the reason I still live 'Cause in my mind it's set the vitamin is ripe to give Coming closer to another two thousand years You and I will pry the closed eye of the sleep machine You stare at me like I'm a vitamin On the surface you hate, but you know you want me I come dressed as any pill you deem fit Whatever helps you swallow the truth, all the more easily
