Incubus - Vitamin (lyrics)


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 its feet
Should I go back to sleep?
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 see what I mean? 

You stare at me like a vitamin 
On the surface you hate
But you know you need me
I'll come dressed as any pill you deem fit
Whatever helps you swallow 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 2000 years 
You and I will pry 
The closed eye of the sleep machine
