Testo The Anatomy Of Time (babel)
Certain was the fear trembling in your father's chest - encountering the ancients
In a graveyard for those who never rest
Even the wind lay still
As time revealed the fools we are
Quiet monoliths appear
Suspended in the air
Solemn in their countenance Impervious to fear
Marvelling at the symmetry that binds and brings us here - separating threads of space, distinctions disappear
Take all of your answers - throw them in the flames
I'll keep the questions, I'll take the rain
Defend all your doctrines - those lies you had sworn
I'll wander through the night, I'll sleep in the storm
I'll follow you to the end
I'll weather the world
I'll sleep in the storm
I'll follow you to the end where time has no beginning
I pulled the past apart - futures unravelled with its plans
To my chagrin, the answers felt hollow in my hands Adorned with memories that form the tapestry of life
Collective accounts of consciousness from virtue to vice
"Where are you now?" My voice echoed in that canyon
I turned to find you lynched
Choking with abandon
The scope of time, at first profuse
Now twisted to the shape of a noose
We wanted to see forever, but instead we saw the truth
Species of the nightmare, people of the dream:
Language is your prison, but also the key
Confront the heart of fear
Behold the shape of destiny
Spinning in the circles, waltz with the sun
There's no time, many turn to one
Take all of your answers - throw them in the flames
I'll keep the questions, I'll take the rain
Defend all your doctrines - those lies you had sworn
I'll wander through the night, I'll sleep in the storm
I'll follow you to the end
I'll weather the world
I'll sleep in the storm
I'll follow you to the end where time has no beginning
Blinded by the shadow of what we've seen
In a graveyard for those who never rest
Even the wind lay still
As time revealed the fools we are
Quiet monoliths appear
Suspended in the air
Solemn in their countenance Impervious to fear
Marvelling at the symmetry that binds and brings us here - separating threads of space, distinctions disappear
Take all of your answers - throw them in the flames
I'll keep the questions, I'll take the rain
Defend all your doctrines - those lies you had sworn
I'll wander through the night, I'll sleep in the storm
I'll follow you to the end
I'll weather the world
I'll sleep in the storm
I'll follow you to the end where time has no beginning
I pulled the past apart - futures unravelled with its plans
To my chagrin, the answers felt hollow in my hands Adorned with memories that form the tapestry of life
Collective accounts of consciousness from virtue to vice

I'll sleep in the storm
I'll follow you to the end where time has no beginning
Blinded by the shadow of what we've seen
