It’s black and cold Far beyond the light and gone The secrets told Drift into an endless hole There we go Fasten hope with chance and bone Then we’ll know, then we’ll know Face the light Thrash about disrupt the hive When these expire, consult the signs Which of them had come to thrive? Bear in mind The barren mind is wrapped too tight Release the bonds of your insight We sail along with ancient myths That light our sky We sail the cold, black Firmament Within our mind We sail along with ancient myths That light our sky We sail the cold, black Firmament Within our mind Let’s tear apart the ancient myths Let’s conquer time Let’s rule the holy Firmament Within our minds Billions of years beyond the breach The final goal so far from reach The path obscured from journey’s end We sail the lonely Firmament

I’ve been searching for the questions that I long ignored And maybe I don’t know the half of things Pictures on the floor can always just be hung tomorrow Today is such a chore, it’s hard to breathe Turn around, build a wall, and then we’ll make an open door Where one had once been closed for you and me It’s not what we know, it’s the way we rise above It’s a farce you know, this way of lies It’s more than we’re told, the way it truly binds us all Is a state in flux like melting ice I’ve been searching for a truth that lies in bitter cold And maybe at it’s core is tragedy Silence has a role, in every single story sold Should I do what I’m told and gnash my teeth? It’s not what we know, it’s the way we rise above It’s a farce you know, this way of lies It’s more than we’re told, the way it truly binds us all Is a state in flux like melting ice I went searching for the answers on a foreign shore Well maybe that’s the point of inquiry Speech is silver, silence gold, a picture’s worth more than we’re told And maybe I’ll go make a masterpiece

Sad moments set to a pop song Unfurl the flag, and we all belong Let’s bring in business on climate Stock market’s up... it’s a sign, it’s a sign! One minute clip of a car bomb One minute clip of a rocket launch Portion control all the content Digestible moments, a sign of the times Know their design Politics dressed up in Christ pose Rhetoric sold to the common folk Plucked like a rose from a trash can Stock market's down... it’s a sign, it’s a sign! One minute clip of Big Ag farms One minute clip of a cop assault Portion control all the content Digestible moments, a sign of the times They rape our world by night Fog refracts all the light
