Madness creeps in when im trying to be rational in a dream.
I've tried, Im tired of pretending
Imposing the limit to myself just to relate on normality.

Sell the idea that we are suffering. That you’ll see me through
If I am one of you.

I wont dare to prove my side, conformists plagued our lives
Killing our weakened hopes.

Wear your colors and follow the line.
Syncing feeble empty minds.

An oath that no one understands,
A road that keeps us out of plan.
We share the same root but
we bear different fruit.

So I choose to fall away.

I see the future and I still lose.
Nobody wants this gift,
And I can never choose.
Catching the drift, I know I am free.
I plead for life, plead for insanity.

Until we get our chance,
Until we burst from the seams
Until they are ready to believe, we stay
In the dark.

“Simple” from the Engender album is a song about swimming against the stream of norm.
