A Lonely Wraith’s Lament

Sometimes I wish that I was smart enough
To be not born a human and not evolve thumbs
But I guess I lack the foresight for that
Or perhaps I'm just plain dumb
The days blur together, there’s not enough air
And I'm grasping for something that just isn't there
But I guess I lack the eyesight for that
Though this blindness isn’t fair

Can you hear me?
Can you help me?
I've been searching for a cure to this disease
But I can't seem to find it
I hope you don't mind it

The words that I sing I never understand
They were writ by an angel, but I'm just a man
But I guess I lack the insight for that
It's another thing I can't
Maybe this body's a poor surrogate
And my soul’s somewhere else, but just where, I forget
But I guess I lack the hindsight for that
Cause there’s nothing I regret

Are you hiding?
Are you crying?
I've been searching for an exit to this place
But I can’t seem to find one
Maybe your mind's one

Your bones fit
Rather perfect
I've been searching for a host that I can take
And I know that I've found it
Your body’s resounded
