Never Ask Why
This song tries to capture the turmoil in the mind questioning the reason for existence. The fear and futility of the quest and the impending failure of such a pursuit; in short, the curse of reasoning mind.

Grinding away on the ticking stone
Staving off the grim reaper
Standing in the crowd but still alone
Grimace the front for the weeper.
I think therefore I am
With a pinch of salt I take this lie
No rhyme no reason
This mind won't stop asking why
The whys keep me up, chasing away the z's
Can't appreciate love, not even a cool gentle breeze.
Turn off the mind, shut out reason
Live in the moment, ask never why
Life is different every season
Live in the moment before you're blue with the sky.
Hearken to the heart or listen to the mind
Both run course on the drop of the dice
A force unknown is what one'll find
Pursuing its own aims in the guise
Inhaling life with throwback's ills fraught
Fighting the madness of the afore lot
Hoping to find meaning seems a long shot
All one can do is add theirs to the witch's pot.
Turn off the mind, shut out reason
Live in the moment, ask never why
Life is different every season
Live in the moment before you're blue with the sky.
Every query opens up ten new in a spree
I am cursed for I seek to know more
No matter how far I walk into the sea
I always find myself back at the shore.
Turn off the mind, shut out reason
Live in the moment, ask never why
Life is different every season
Live in the moment before you're blue with the sky.
