The Dive (b) Songtext
von Eyedea & Abilities

Take a deep breath
There′s nothing to be afraid of
What you just did was fall to the depths of existence
The place your mind keeps you away from by its
Own process of building models for understanding
And now the voice in your head is yours
And now the voice in your head is yours
And now the voice in your head is yours

You found yourself fall into madness
So you know the best thing you ever did was let go (let go)
You found yourself fall into madness
So you know the best thing you ever did was let go (let go)
I found myself fall into madness
So I know the best thing I ever did was let go (let go)
I found myself fall into madness
So I know the best thing I ever did was let go (let go)


See, life is a play and we're always acting out without ever
Seeing it from the writer′s or audience's point of view
But we reach infinity when we become the writers
The actors, and the audience at the exact same time

So here you are and now you understand
You always were here, that's why you always ran

But you can only run away for so long
Before you catch up with yourself and become part of the song
I′d like to welcome you to the heaven you created
I tell the truth, this is the wisdom of the ancients

Holding on to something contradicts our being
So fly free (fly free), fly free (fly free)
Maybe I had to go crazy to get where I am
I felt myself slipping away and I let myself fall

Gotta lose your mind before you find it
When you finally find it, you find out you never lost it at all
There′s a natural flow that's attached to your soul
It don′t ask you to go, it just gradually pulls
It's always now and you′re never not you
So follow yourself 'cause if nothing else, your existence is true


Have you ever felt yourself slipping away?
I am, I mean, I was slipping away
But no matter what I am, I′m me
And I know me, so I'm okay
Have you ever felt yourself slipping away?
You are, I mean, you were slipping away
But no matter what you are, you're you
And you know you, so you′re okay

I′m not a poet or a communist, a comet or a star
You're not a genius or a prophet, you just are
I′m not insane 'cause I have no need for my sanity
It′s just another chain that keeps me from reality
Reality is mine to play with and mold
The best thing I ever did was let go (let go)
So let go of the models, transcend the physical mind
And peacefully become part of the whole

The walls came tumbling down
But this time it was for keeps, I've been running around

Looking for my feet, now they′re part of the ground
And make the ground complete, live in the now
And forever be at peace, live in the now
Don't stray away from the cycle

I'm one with the universe, one with the life flow

When you know that that which is below is above
The fear you once had will become love (feel the love)

Have you ever felt yourself slipping away?
I am, I mean, I was slipping away
But no matter what I am, I′m me
And I know me, so I′m okay
Have you ever felt yourself slipping away?
You are, I mean, you were slipping away
But no matter what you are, you're you
And you know you, so you′re okay

It starts out with a question, how much of it is real?

Now all is irrelevant outside of this ordeal
Don't worry about explaining it
There ain′t no human language that can
Actually describe exactly how you feel
Now I see clear through external distractions
Piece by piece it comes together, so I laugh and I smile
In the beginning it was deranged
But I guess all things come to pass after a while
If madness could have a picture face, how would it look?
Like step one to becoming the contents of your own book

Right where you are right now is where you're gonna stay
And as long as you′re always moving
With yourself, you'll never slip away
