LOSE YOUR SELF

[Intro: Rou Reynolds] For the 100 billion who came before us Who forged civilization For the 8 billion alive now Who shape its destiny For the trillions still to come Whose very existence teeters on a knife-edge [Bridge: Rou Reynolds] (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self) [Chorus: Rou Reynolds] You're suspended In a light beam To transcend it You gotta lose your self You're suspended In a light beam To transcend it You gotta lose your self [Post-Chorus: Rou Reynolds] (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self...)

(You gotta lose your self...) (You gotta lose your self) [Refrain 1: Rory Clewlow & Chris Batten] Open wide and devour [Refrain 2: Rou Reynolds, Rou Reynolds, Chris Batten & Rory Clewlow] Be self made and infected Off-grid, disconnected The individual with no power They open wide and devour Walk alone, isolated Bootstraps, intoxicated The individual with no power They open wide and devour [Drop: Rory Clewlow, Chris Batten, Rory Clewlow & Rou Reynolds] Yeah They open wide and devour Ah They open wide and devour [Chorus: Rou Reynolds & Chris Batten, Rory Clewlow, Rou Reynolds, Rory Clewlow & Chris Batten] You're suspended (You're suspended) In a light beam (In a light beam) To transcend it (To transcend it) You gotta lose your self (You gotta lose your self) You're suspended In a light beam To transcend it You gotta lose your self [Post-Chorus: Rou Reynolds] (You gotta lose your self...)
