lyrics

You’re alone in a plastic existence
The sinner of the sky
An unknown plastic existence
That’s my perception of time

Food for thought, double crossed
Waking moment, my devotion
Relapse of judgement in motion
In my defense I confess my perception of time

I wished it wasn’t like this
I wished I hadn’t tried
Now I’m standing in the spotlight
I got my life on the line

I’ve counted pigs for before
You were even born
I see you standing in my spotlight
You’re wasting my time

You’re alone in the plastic existence
A sinner of the sky
An unknown plastic existence
That’s my perception of time

What’s the cost of the loss?
Caught a fleeting glimpse of something
My whole world turned to nothing
You took offense with this test
Of my perception of time

You’re searching for an answer
That you’ll never find
There’s too much left to do
Is this the day or the night?

My creation is vibration
If that’s the message you want
It’s such a lonely daunting task
It’s all that I ask

Time’s controlling me
I’m floating on a plastic piece
Out in the ocean or the sea
I feel as plastic as can be with my existence

Time’s controlling me
I’m like a leaf that’s on a tree
I’m blowing out there in the breeze
I feel as plastic as can be with my existence

This is a plastic existence
This is a plastic existence
This is a plastic existence
Plastic Existence

Time’s controlling me
I’m floating on a plastic piece
Out in the ocean or the sea
I feel as plastic as can be with my existence

Time’s controlling me
I’m like a leaf that’s on a tree
I’m blowing out there in the breeze
I feel as plastic as can be with my existence
