Mantis

Just got back today
And I'm searchin' 'round the place
Lookin' for you-know-who
But there's no sign yet
Singin' autopilot days
Shinin' ultraviolet rays
On this dusty skeleton
I feel akin on a cosmic level

I can see right through you, yeah
I can read your bones just like a telephone book
Maybe I should give it up again, again
I am exercising how good it feels to be alive
And no surprises up my sleeve
Everything is temporary

Ooh, prayin' mantis on my door
Lookin' for meaning or just any sign at all
Ooh, organizin' all my thoughts, makin' them rhyme
Choosing wisely where I spend my time

Well, give me midnight love again
Feelin' somewhat alien
I'm floatin' aimless
But got my feet concreted
Beneath this creature of habit

Teach me the magic of an
Extraordinary day or anodyne the time away
And there's no such thing as a perfect melody
But I keep searching every morning in the trees

Ooh, prayin' mantis on my door
Lookin' for meaning or just any sign at all
Ooh, organizin' all my thoughts makin' them rhyme
Choosing wisely where I spend my time

And I've got my head sorted sort of
I keep goin' just because, yeah, just because
I've got my head sorted sort of
I keep goin' just because, yeah, just because
