lyrics

If the catalyst to consciousness must validate your biases then why bother waking at all?
Because until you can accept the view that all you know could be inverted truth, you'll wander in the dark
Circumvent outrageous speech with the theory of everything
Who dare question the Lord of Conventions?
I challenge what the world could be
Science is no democracy
Rabbit holes and humble pie will theorize

So tell me what is so wrong with thinking maybe it's us who have been at fault all along?
It's okay to be flawed
There's no perfect god that we can change if you want
But if you ask me, "Money or love?"
I'll sadly have to admit that I have exhausted them both
And I may sound emotive but I don't want to feel nothing at all

When the world was young, and so were we, our answers came from our authorities (oh so utterly)
Now now we got the knack & lack of sieves to make our conclusions what exist
And I reckon there's more to this than what they say it is
Programmed to a happenstance
Keep thinking that we can't relapse into submissive lives
Failure is a 4-letter word for anyone who is too afraid to work through their dilemma
Just numb you with a lie

And tell me what can be done?
I'm sinking into the absence of rational suspicion
It's a problem to solve
We're lost and evolved
Just a fly on the wall
If you ask me, "Where is your God?"
I'll actually have to inform you it's inside us, one and all
And I may sound affected but I don't want to feel nothing at all

I remember being terrified to speak
Minuscule like a baby centipede
Verisimilitude it seems had all these cobras in my keep
I remember being scared I would not be strong enough to stand up on my own
Stand tall
I don't want to feel nothing at all

There's a light inside
There's a light inside of us that shines
There's a light inside of us that shines in the shade
