A heuristic technique, often called simply a heuristic, is any approach to problem solving or self-discovery that employs a practical method, not guaranteed to be optimal, perfect, logical, or rational, but instead sufficient for reaching an immediate goal.
Tell yourself
Control it from the inside
Losing streak
You realise you're letting go
Holding on
Exploding from the inside
Far beyond all reason
Forge your coin
To get across the river
Sink down deep
Deep underground
Searching on
Daylight in the tunnel
Far beyond all reason
It's drifting in and out in waves
We're living in the strangest daze
A picture in a different frame
You only hear me when you're miles and miles away
