lyrics

So let this be the statement of our time
I am the bridge between you and realms unseen to eyes
Beyond the confines of stagnant self perception

I dwell in shadows of agony and mire
Beckon the hand to return me from the fire
Dragging down the titans of my preconception

The rate of change that has no end
Take a look within and alter again
Relinquish every principle I fault
I test my strength against his jaw
Now that’s a cross to bear

The sacred age of play pretend
Baiting for the sharks you call your friends
Distinguished in a sense that you’re more lost
Than anyone that takes your heart
It’s your flesh to share

Omit the shrine
Callous is my heart
Cold as the soul-forsaken

Enshroud the eyes
Ripped the fuck apart
Never again be taken

By occulted signals in between
The fabric of reality
And childish dreams
Nothing’s real to me
I shit you not

You give me empty faith of false design
Nihilistic visions that you prophesied to me
Worlds enflamed
Destruction unquantified
Artificial intelligence has engineered your mind

I might think that your free will is a self construct
A manifestation of what religious institutions imparted on you
I want to live
l just want to live without conforming to the media

You can tell me that our freedom isn’t paramount
Your words serve to deescalate each dialogue where the truth is found
What more can I give when sensibility was never enough?

I know that you are well intentioned
But I can see fear stricken in your eyes
Never try again

Distaste that undermines ascension
Let’s say everything has a reason
How about the hate you hope subsides
When it never can

Deciphering symbols within
Unveil the path where we begin
To discover the light where you feel safe

The silence keeps you holding on
To apathy when all is lost
Now syphoning your life away

Deciphering symbols within
Unveil the path where we begin
Discovering the light that keeps you safe

The silence keeps you holding on
To apathy when all is lost
Now syphoning your life away

So let this be the statement of our time
I am the bridge between you and realms unseen to eyes
Beyond the confines of stagnant self perception

Yeah
