lyrics

Prescribe the constellation  There is no science to it  Yet you find it so easy to swallow
A quick archetype and a broad definition
These foundations Lie within us all  You’ve been drifting around So aimless, so aimless Living without control Your kind are so provincial   I’ve seen you all bow before the sun A march of slugs into an open beer  You’ve been drifting around so aimless, so aimless Living without control Your kind are so provincial The only thing in your way (Cataract lens) Is your faith  So pay attention
Watch us open up the sky
We peel back the layers
And show you the insides
Don't close your eyes now
 Bugs trapped in the amber of each moment
I am the messenger
(Say it now) We can’t go on like this
Excuses are your weakness
Your failures are your own
(Say it now) We die alone
 Pay attention
Watch us open up the sky
So pay attention
Watch us open up the sky
We peel back the layers
And show you the insides
Don't close your eyes now
We are all the fool  Where you and I met There’s no alignment Mass is all there is Bending the space in between  And that space is yours
You dictate it’s worth Stop kidding yourself
And let go of the curse

Pay attention
Watch us open up the sky
We peel back the layers
And show you the insides
Don't close your eyes now
