Lyrics
You’d lay the line down
You express your thoughts or opinions clearly.
If you found out
If you discovered something, you would communicate it.
But you're all too busy scratching posts to ever know
People are preoccupied with trivial matters and may miss important information.
Where you come from is where you run from
Your origin is a place you avoid.
But looking round
Despite appearances, it's hard to tell that you are like spirits or ghosts.
You’d never know that you were ghosts
A solitary flame and countless destinies.
A single fire
A falsehood, no matter how small, can have significant consequences.
A billion fates
A reference to the power of lies in shaping events.
A single lie is all it takes
A falsehood, no matter how small, can have significant consequences.
In a time Before the maze
Refers to a period before confusion or uncertainty.
These are strange
The present time is unusual or unsettling.
Stranger days
Emphasizes the peculiar and unsettling nature of the current times.
You can run run towards
You have the choice to move towards something.
Put out the fire within the core
Extinguish the passion or intensity at the center.
Lock your the gates and build your walls
Protect yourself by closing off access and constructing barriers.
It comes none
Nothing comes without consequences.
You’ll bleed out and run
You'll suffer and escape.
A little bit of greed is all we’ll ever need
A small amount of desire is all that's necessary.
Deaf dumb and blind to all the pain we see
Unaware and indifferent to the suffering around.
Tape her down make sure she doesn’t scream
Restraining someone to prevent them from expressing pain.
A screaming blond is
A distressed person is...
Years and years
Signifying a prolonged period of conflict.
Of back and forth
Continuous struggles and competitions.
And all the games we’ve played
Reference to the various experiences and challenges faced.
Look around to what we’ve made
Observing the consequences of actions.
We set the world aflame
Causing significant and widespread changes.
These are stranger stranger days
These times are even more peculiar and unsettling.
These are stranger stranger days
Reiteration of the strange nature of the current times.
These are stranger stranger days
Repetition emphasizing the strangeness of the era.
These are stranger stranger days
Emphasizing the continued unusual nature of the times.
If I lay the line down
If I express my thoughts clearly...
Maybe I would find out
Exploring the possibility of discovering something by communicating openly.
But I'm too busy scratching posts to ever know
Engaged in trivial matters, missing out on important information.
