i was under the impression that i was right
i was thinking about what wasn't mine
i was wondering about the bering sea
about the history of the worlds geography
i was asking myself what it's like to be you
if living in your skin was something that i could get used to
we were talking about the relativity of feelings
how there's no way to know if we're experiencing the same thing
it's always 2 am that i feel alive again
and i decided that people were programmed to survive
and now survival's too easy and we don't know what to do with our lives
too much time on our hands, not enough on our minds
we keep looking for problems and so that's what we find
in over my head, you were under the sea
basking in the deep tranquility
and somewhere down deep at the ocean floor
we started talking about what it was we needed more of
it's always 2 am that i feel alive again
i've been thinking about how things could be
about laughing out loud, about absurdity
and side by side into the night
i can't help thinking that maybe everything is going to be all right
