When I was a young boy I tried to listen
And I want to feel like that
Little white shadows blink and I missed em
Part of a system, a planIf you ever feel like something's missing
Things you'll never understand
Little white shadows sparkle and glisten
Part of a system planAll this noise, I'm waking up
All this space I'm taking up
All this sound is breaking upWhoa ohMaybe you'll get what you wanted
Maybe you'll stumble upon it
Everything you ever wanted
In a permanent stateMaybe you'll know when you see it
Maybe if you say it you'll mean it
And when you find it you'll keep it
In a permanent state
A permanent stateWhen I was a young boy I tried to listen
Don't you want to feel like thatYou're part of the human race
All of the stars and the outer space
Part of the system planAll this noise, I'm waking up
All this space I'm taking up
I cannot hear, you're breaking upWhoa ohMaybe you'll get what you wanted
Maybe you'll stumble upon it
Everything you ever wanted
In a permanent stateMaybe you'll know when you see it
Maybe if you say it, you'll mean it
And when you find it you'll keep it
In a permanent state
A permanent stateSwimming on a sea of faces
A tide of the human race
So, an answer now is what I needI see it in the new sun rising
I see it break on your horizon
Oh come on love, stay with me
