Incubus - Vitamin lyrics

I'm born

I'm alive

I breathe

In a moment or two I realize,

that the sphere upon which I reside,

is asleep on its feet.

should I go back to sleep?

We orbit the sun

I grow up

my open eyes see...

A zombified, somnambulist society.

Leaving us as vitamins

for the hibernating human animal.

Do you see what I mean?

You stare at me like a vitamin

On the surface you hate,

but you know you need me.

I'll come dressed as any pill you deem fit.

Whatever helps you swallow truth

all the more easily.

And I wonder, will you digest me?

Into the sleep machine I won't plug in,

in fact I'd rather die before I will comply.

To you, my friend,

I write the reason I still live,

'cause in my mind it's set the vitamin is ripe to give

Coming closer to another 2000 years

you and I will pry

the closed eye of the sleep machine
