Casual Enlightenment

You swoop in from somewhere else in the stratosphere
Black locks thrashing
And aggressive dance moves

Woah oh woah
Woah oh oh

Meet someone and some lost inner self reappears
Some selves I can’t remember
Some theories I can’t prove

Woah oh woah
Woah oh oh

Be my mantra
Be my pinch of nirvana
Be the touch of transcendence I wanted
Cause I don’t know you too well
I can’t read your vibe
But maybe we find some enlightenment tonight
You know we won’t go through all the formal steps
It’s alright
I don’t need a soul mate
But in the normal sense we’ll take flight
Yeah it’s a casual night
For a casual enlightenment

I write down my dreams
And you, you never archive
You take your cues from the workings of the real world

Woah oh woah
Woah oh oh

And you are already gone
Since the minute you arrived
Were you even here?
What is the deal, girl?

Woah oh woah
Woah oh oh

Be my mantra
Be my pinch of nirvana
Be the touch of transcendence I wanted
Cause I don’t know you too well
I can’t read your vibe
But maybe we find some enlightenment tonight
I know we won’t go through all the formal steps
It’s alright
I don’t need a soulmate
But in the normal sense we’ll take flight
Cause it’s a casual night
For a casual enlightenment
