lyrics

And I awoke from this dream, where I have seen random objects all laid out
With no pattern it seemed, ordered arbitrarily, until index numbers were found
From one to infinity, expanding exponentially, the limits were unbound
And now evidently this message can’t be isolated from the sound

…of the noise of these structures resonating, slowly breaking apart at the cracks
Which widen to reveal, a misplaced sense of forgotten beauty
Previously, hidden in meaning, it’s quite misleading
To conclude so fast, that we will all collapse
Into fragments of light with the courage to

Confront what we’ve been hiding from
The truth of our own mortality in stark contrast with

The noise of the particles vibrating, dissipating into the wind
Who’s blowing to reveal, the fabric underneath the seams

And just like river banks in rainy season we burst open with emotion
And tension for a new adventure up ahead in the distance
We overcome these short term hurdles with no hesitation anymore,
…So many options to explore

Don’t waste my time – The process has commenced
Won’t change my mind – Because I’ve gone against
You can’t define – a functional threat
Because you will find that the terms have all broken apart

And this anxiety is tearing me apart inside
As We collapse…
And We all will Collapse
As this line is erased We will all collapse…
