Vertical Reality
Miten with Deva Premal Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Watching
Breathing
Seeing
There is no time in here
There is no mind in here
Emptiness is what it is
It's a vertical reality
Walking
Watching
Dreaming
Feeling
I must have about a million things on my mind
But I've got my feet on the ground
I can't remember what it was I hoped to find
I'm just grateful for what I found
There is no time in here
There is no mind in here
Emptiness is what it is
It's a vertical reality
And it's big enough for you and me
Yes, it's bigger than the sun
Big enough for everyone
It's a vertical reality
