We’re so evolved
Sophisticated
Every thought
So innovative

We think we’ve got
It figured out
Standing so tall
I have my doubts

Let our guard down
Here’s what we’ll find
Back in the pattern
Pattern of mind

We think we see
But we are blind
Just a pattern
A pattern of mind

Pattern of mind
Pattern of mind
Going forward
In rewind

Pattern of mind
Pattern of mind
Around our ankle
It wraps its vine

Thought we were free
For a minute
Thought we were out
Now we’re back in it

Try to act cool
Try not to show it
We can pretend
But we all know it

We think we’re messy
It’s cut and dry
Locked in the pattern
The pattern of mind

A constellation
A fixed design
Just a pattern
A pattern of mind

Pattern of mind
Pattern of mind
Try to get out
It pulls from behind

Pattern of mind
Pattern of mind
What a drag
This humankind

Free will
If we use it
It’s a muscle
And we can lose it

Are we the wheel?
Or just the track?
It takes everything
To not fall back

As sure as sure
As cells divide
Back in the pattern
The pattern of mind

Seeking bliss
Or the divine
Just a pattern
A pattern of mind

Pattern of mind
Pattern of mind
Our thoughts slip
And our thoughts slide

Pattern of mind
Pattern of mind
Making shapes and
Seeing signs

Plant a garden
Turn off your phone
When was the last time
You were alone

With just your breath
And nothing more
Our thoughts lead somewhere
Trapdoors

So take a walk
Here's what you’ll find
Patterns in the sky
Patterns in the mind

Don’t try to figure out
How to be alive
Looking for meaning
In the patterns of mind

Pattern of mind
Pattern of mind
Think we’re driving
Just along for the ride

Pattern of mind
Pattern of mind
Go ahead work hard
For your overtime
