Heavy as sleep you rest on my mind
Staring into the sun until you go blind
Our fates are not intertwined, our stars are not aligned
Straight to a patch of blue in your suckerhole mind
Your kiss on my mouth makes a song, the crowd says we sing it
Thin air free of concrete facts
Created by mental acrobats
You won't get far dancing on the end of a string
Zen in the bottom of a bottle
Make a peace with my own mind
Blatant escape in the middle of that riot
Leave it on the steps, close the door, shut the blinds
Take a little time, take a little time, take a little time
A mist settles on the choir, they breathe in together
Holding the same air with the same note
A break in the action allows the sound to linger
What'll you buy when the money's gone
Who'll read what you wrote?
Zen in the bottom of a bottle
Make a peace with my own mind
Blatant escape in the middle of that riot
Leave it on the steps, close the door, shut the blinds
Take a little time, take a little time, take a little time
You'll get used to it
You'll get used to it
Zen in the bottom of a bottle
Make a peace with my own mind
Blatant escape in the middle of that riot
Leave it on the steps, close the door, shut the blinds
Take a little time, take a little time, take a little time
