Within You Without You
The Flaming Lips feat. Birdflower & Morgan Delt Lyrics

We were talking, about the space between us all
We were discussing the emotional and physical distance among people.

And the people, who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion
We talked about how some people build a facade or illusion around themselves to hide from reality.

Never glimpse of truth, then it's far too late, when they pass away
Those who never seek the truth will only realize their mistake once it's too late, when they expire.

We were talking, about the love we could all share, when we find it
We discussed the possibility of sharing love once we discover it.

To try our best to hold it there, with our love
We should make an effort to keep the love alive through our love for each other.

With our love, we could save the world, if they only knew
Love can be a powerful force to save the world if only people realize it.

Try to realize it's all within yourself no-one else can make you change
It's up to us to realize that the ability to bring about change lies within us, and no one else can do it for us.

And to see you're really only very small,
We should understand that we're just a small part of a larger universe.

And life flows on within and without you
Life goes on whether we're aware of it or not, both within us and beyond us.

We were talking, about the love that's gone so cold and the people,
We talked about how people lose their affection and the people who are affected by it.

Who gain the world and lose their soul
Some people acquire everything but lose their true identity and values in the process.

Then you may find, peace of mind, is waiting there
If we seek serenity, we'll find it waiting for us,

And the time will come when you see we're all one,
Eventually, we'll realize that we're all connected as one.

And life flows on within and without you
Life continues in its perpetual motion inside us and around us irrespective of our awareness.
