The hard truth is better than a comfortable lie so Who are we really, I'm feeling so deprived Give me the answers I've always tried to find Through books written way before my time
Those tales of men who were so wise Manipulating a truth so well disguised Those tales of life after the tides wiped it all away Mistakes they tried to hide
Who were we before Eve gave us life And who is Adam, an experiment, a guise? Who am I, an experiment, a lie I feel we're all blind to the truth but where does it lie?
It's all written but we won't look or listen There's too much pain in the truth, in that wisdom We're all links in a chain, but something's missing Maybe the answer's in a place not so distant
Where do we come from, that's the plight of humankind Are those ancient ruins a reference, a time line? Did they come to ruin us or help define What we would ultimately become in due time
If those stories of gods enslaving minds Holds any weight then I've defied my kind There's no glory in tainting human life But I'm no follower so I still search to find
Some sign that there's more to this life The folklore and religions that divide It's all true or it's all a fucking lie It's all proof none of us know where our souls reside
It's all written but we won't look or listen There's too much pain in the truth, in that wisdom We're all links in a chain, but something's missing Maybe the answer's in a place not so distant
