Everyone (Ideas Will Be Meaningless)

from demos! by Cake "Alchemy!"

/

lyrics

She said the mushroom’s her favorite flower
Loves their whispered tales from deep night
She said I always miss their perfect hour
Summoned between my fists of flight
Whatever vanity consumes me
never consumes me when I walk with her
Isn't it a rarity to be aware that Love occurs
Cause there are many like me, lonely and weird
Cutting sentences just to disappear
But it’s a wondrous time to meet this squarely:
The challenges that rise up and prepare me
For the ultimate expression of sacrifice!
Dedicating all of my life
To my great Loves:
The earth and the sun
Every moment squeezed within
Something as simple as a minute
Oh she said that even ideas will be meaningless
If I’m unwilling to greet them with a hungry kiss
So I disappeared
Behind a trail of fears
Because there are things more important than life or death
And I started pretending
That my world was ending
And finally understood that I could be meaningless too
If I dropped out from my flaming, passing moods

She said sometimes people die trying to do great things
Cause its insanity to never want any release
From all of this miscarriage
From pressing our ears close trying to hear it

Eating flesh as the world spins in ritual
We connect by what is not perceptual
She said we’ll decide the best we believe we can
Even if we’re capable of limitless plans
No, the mushroom won’t be a flower in everyone’s eyes
She said sometimes people die
Long before they’re laid inside a grave

So now I hope I wake with tranquility on my tongue
Because I must Love everyone, I Love everyone
