Origins Lyrics

Have you ever come to question everything you see?
Stronger than a superstition
It's a parallel reality

There's a shadow in that corner only I can see
I can feel it watching, waiting
For the moment I finally give in

You told me it was all an illusion
And I don't know why
But I can't let it go
...and you tell me I should move on and get over it
But I need to see, I need to know

Descend another level down
In the face of danger
The origins of what I have become
It can't be left behind
So lay it on the line
It's a vicious cycle
It pulls you in
And it never lets you go

These secret messages from the universe to me
Catastrophic premonitions
Far as the eye can see
There's no way out, there's no way around
The only option: Forward
Moving on full steam ahead

A sudden realization
As the vision slowly fades
I was blinded by the will to find a
meaning to it all
A meaning to all...

And if the pieces fit together
And if they somehow make a shape
Then it wasn't all for nothing
Then there's meaning to the pain

But the vision fades
And the purpose too
All the struggles as I searched for truth
Was it all in vain, after all?

The crowds are calling
The curtains falling
On reasoning

Your thoughts are blurred
Memory obscured
Broken as you burn

Forever I may fall
