Foundations of the Earth

Into dust
Did you deceive me
Give me something I can trust
Should I believe what I see
My faith turns into dust
It's all by chance that you arrived
Changing the direction of this life
It's easy to be swept away
Lost at sea with your charm and sway
You tell me I'm stronger than the foundations of the earth
Do you want forgiveness or do you want control
Something you did before
This isn't what you thought it would be
Don't you agree
You tell me I'm stronger than the foundations of the earth
You sow division in my soul

I'm told to follow this rule
Pull myself back from potential ridicule
Predetermination feels so hollow
But that's all I know
That's all I know
I see you and me
In a new reality
Can I be the architect
Build a place that's so beyond perfect
Can I put it all together
Bind myself to every single tether
All I ever wanted was some order
Didn't know my desires were disordered
I guess I found someone else to follow
You're easy to outgrow
Easy to outgrow
I see you and me
In a new reality
Can I be the architect
Build a place that's so beyond perfect
Can I put it all together
Bind myself to every single tether
So punish me for doing things right
Disrupting my progress out of pure spite
You're all bound to me forever
You're all bound to me forever

I'm a mountain of fire
I can no longer put it aside
Hot magma boiling up inside
It's the same old anxiety
And every single day I'm burning out
Just another variety
And soon it'll break out, there is no doubt
My heart beats faster every day
And I'm about to erupt, please keep away
All this time of pushing and pushing it aside
As if I could keep this seething inside
All this time of pushing and pushing it aside
You can feel my fear taking shape
'Cause when I'm stuck I stick to the comfort of escape
This is only ammunition for assured destruction
Sick of being flexible
Bending into shapes that I can't keep
Any restraint is indefensible
Breaking my body for this feels pretty cheap
My heart beats faster every day
And I'm about to erupt, please keep away
All this time of pushing and pushing it aside
As if I could keep this seething inside
All this time of pushing and pushing it aside
Away from me now
My heart beats faster every day
And I'm about to erupt, please keep away
All this time of pushing and pushing it aside
As if I could keep this seething inside
All this time of pushing and pushing it aside
I'm a mountain of fire

Bound to Power

I've got a gift that reaches deep within
It pulls me into a daydream
A future imagined by my own kin
And maybe I'll make all the same mistakes that they've all made
It's in my bloodstream
A love of a reverie
If you call my name I may not answer
If you place the blame you create a cancer
So why don't you wait for me
I'll come around to you someday
Wait and see
Don't give in and throw me away
I want to see what this can do
Give us the dream we all once knew
I want to see what this can do
Give us the dream we all once knew
And maybe you'll never understand why I stay mystified
I'm closer every hour
So bound to its power
If you call my name I may not answer
If you place the blame you create a cancer
So why don't you wait for me
I'll come around to you someday
Wait and see
Don't give in and throw me away
I want to see what this can do
Give us the dream we all once knew
I want to see what this can do
Give us the dream we all once knew
I'll make the wrong decision
Fail at every part of this mission
Wait for me
I'll come around to you someday
Wait and see
Don't give in and throw me away
I want to see what this can do
Give us the dream we all once knew
I want to see what this can do
Give us the dream we all once knew

Am I lost
How much is this going to cost
Such a long fall
I think I heard you call
I have to make my way back to you
After all I've seen, I've been washed clean
I have to see all of my efforts through
Wishing we could skip to the end
But we can't pretend
What's going on
Since I've been long gone
We're under too much pressure
Not enough time
Too much pressure
Not enough time
Can't even measure
The lengths to climb
I have to make my way back to you
After all I've seen, I've been washed clean
I have to see all of my efforts through
Wishing we could skip to the end
But we can't pretend
I can feel it all coming back to me
I have to make my way back to you
After all I've seen, I've been washed clean
I have to see all of my efforts through
Wishing we could skip to the end
But we can't pretend

Will I have an ordinary life
Half of what I should be
Half, raised out of pity
You come and go
You come and go
Way up in the sky
I'm waiting for
I'm waiting for
The day I will decide
I want to know
I want to know
The fate of all of this
I'm waiting for
I'm waiting for
The time for us to split
Will I have an ordinary life
Give me time to decide
Show me every downside
I'm halfway there, have to be scared
I'm halfway there, have to be scared
You come and go
You come and go
Way up in the sky
I'm waiting for
I'm waiting for
The day I will decide
I want to know
I want to know
The fate of all of this
I'm waiting for
I'm waiting for
The time for us to split
You come and go
You come and go
Way up in the sky
I'm waiting for
I'm waiting for
The day I will decide
I want to know
I want to know
The fate of all of this
I'm waiting for
I'm waiting for
The time for us to split

Fantasy

You seem to have lost your touch
Maybe trying is too much
All the magic that was in your hands
Slips away from you
And you're stuck in a barren wasteland
I don't see you anymore
No more
No more
No more
I can still hear your creation
Going back to the foundation
Doesn't stop all my frustration
No it doesn't stop all my frustration
This is a lost cause
I can't believe, in you, I saw no flaws
Can you keep taking space
When you're a losing case
I can't grieve a faith in a fantasy
I don't want to see you lose control
Maybe you're getting sucked inside a black hole
All the history of your genuine grace
Is burning up in flames
Need to reminisce before it's all erased
You don't move me anymore
No more
No more
No more
This is a lost cause
I can't believe, in you, I saw no flaws
Can you keep taking space
When you're a losing case
I can't grieve a faith in a fantasy

I am searching for a better end
At least something we won't have to defend
I see how impossible it may seem
Find some relief
In an infinite loop of grief
Don't be sorry
Now, don't be sorry
Given everything
Getting nothing
Holding onto something
And just hoping for a way out of here
Don't be sorry
Now, don't be sorry
Given everything
Getting nothing
Holding onto something
And just hoping for a way out of here
I'm looking for a utopia
At least somewhere we can feel some euphoria
Tell me it'll be okay
I don't want to find out
Tell me it'll be okay, okay
Tell me it'll be okay
I'll stay on the lookout
How much more can this wait, this wait
Don't apologize now
Don't be sorry
Now, don't be sorry
Given everything
Getting nothing
Holding onto something
And just hoping for a way out of here
Don't be sorry
Now, don't be sorry
Given everything
Getting nothing
Holding onto something
And just hoping for a way out of here
Don't be sorry now, don't be sorry now
Tell me it'll be okay, okay
