[Verse 1]

I've dragged my feet across the seat

And jumped out the passenger side

The only thing worth looking for

Is what you find inside

But that had not yet appeared

Lost, invisible here

Tel Aviv and Agadir

Taroudant or Olomouc

Before I learned to see

The vanishing point appear


[Refrain]

I looked for you and everywhere

I looked for you and everywhere


[Verse 2]

There is a calm I haven't come to yet

I spent half my life figuring what comes next

I telescoped in, I finally win

I finally win the prize

That now my eyes see

Comic's perfect timing squeezed

I'm head-first fighting everything

The crushing force of memory

Erasing all I've been

The vanishing point appears


[Refrain]

I looked for you and everywhere

I looked for you and everywhere

Tell me why you're here

I came to disappear


[Verse 3]

Look at this face

Can you believe it?

Am I living in a beautiful vacuum?

Because I can't see it

The vanishing point appears


[Refrain]

I looked for you and everywhere

I looked for you and everywhere

Tell me why you're here

I came to disappear

Tell me why you're here

I came to disappear

I came to disappear
