Intro
Verse 1
Searching for a reason in the bottom of the glass
Watching all the centuries and all the visions pass
Thales saw the water, but I only feel the cold
Living in a story that has already been told
Is there something beneath the skin?
Is there a place where the gods begin?
I’m digging for the marrow, I’m digging for the soul
But the pieces that I find... they never make me whole.
Pre-Chorus
I can feel it pulling...
The weight of what I know...
I’m reaching for the surface
But I’m sinking down below...
Chorus
GIVE ME THE SOURCE! GIVE ME THE KEY!
I’m drowning in the patterns of a fake reality!
It’s the first element, the spark in the dark
Leaving every question with a permanent mark!
Break it down to the essence, break it down to the core
I’ve been standing on the edge, but I can’t take anymore!
Verse 2
Aristotle’s fire is a flicker in my eyes
Feeding on the logic of a thousand different lies
We’re building up the pillars just to watch the ceiling fall
Staring at the writing that is etched into the wall
Is it earth? Is it wind? Is it air?
I’m screaming out the names but there’s nobody there
The foundation is breaking, the cycle is a trap
And I’m falling through the spaces in the middle of the map!
Pre-Chorus
The world is heavy on my chest
I’m put to the ultimate test...
Looking for the soul...
But the pieces never make a whole!
Chorus
GIVE ME THE SOURCE! GIVE ME THE KEY!
I’m drowning in the patterns of a fake reality!
It’s the first element, the spark in the dark
Leaving every question with a permanent mark!
Bridge
Yeah! You’re trapped in the cave, staring at the wall!
Waiting for a logic that’ll catch you when you fall!
Everything is One? That’s a lie we tell the weak!
The answers that we want aren’t the answers that we seek!
(Where do we go? Where do we go?)
STASIS! CHAOS! The world is a prison of the mind!
STASIS! CHAOS! What are you hoping to find?!
WHAT ARE YOU HOPING TO FIND?!
Breakdown
Chorus
GIVE ME THE SOURCE! GIVE ME THE KEY!
I’m drowning in the patterns of a fake reality!
It’s the first element, the spark in the dark
Leaving every question with a permanent mark!
GIVE ME THE SOURCE! GIVE ME THE KEY!
I’m drowning in the patterns of a fake reality!
It’s the first element, the spark in the dark
Leaving every question with a permanent mark!
Outro
The pieces never make a whole...
The pieces never make a whole...
The First...
The Last...
