Tutelary Genius Songtext
Son of a bitch
Don't sabotage everything that moves forward
I think "If I fail, I would be free of success and it's burdens"
But failure's burdens are heavier with misery's many friends
Once I get up I will do all I can, not to fall on my face again
Chorus
Can you find me a true original?
Sentinel satellite, keeper of vigilance,
Uncompromising and unconditional
Tutelary genius
Sound the alarm!
Agency's calling me out from my slumber
I admit that I'm scared
To bully regret out of burning my daylight
Deep in my moment of weakness I tried to reach out to you
Next time you need me for something just know I've more pressing things to pursue!
Chorus
Can you find me a true original?
Sentinel satellite, keeper of vigilance,
Uncompromising and unconditional
Tutelary genius
Bridge
Whilst hunting minotaur inside my magic maze
This idle halo spins around my head in petty pace
I fear I've caught myself between the screen and window pane
Take joy from the now and the things that longing tried to take away
(Background vocals in the bridge lyrics:
Inside my magic maze
Please don't give up just trust that true efforts are never in vein
It's true what they say it's the journey not the end from which all good thing are made)
I feel so ashamed
Only a mind with enough time to wander
It's anchors away, once I'm through building the ship I'm to sail in
Unbind myself from the hamstrings of yesterdays hit and run
No I won't stand to be pinning myself
There's more pressing things to be done!
Chorus
Can you find me a true original?
Sentinel satellite, keeper of vigilance,
Uncompromising and unconditional
