conflicting motive - seti lyrics
[verse 1]
floating above us
in the stories we’re told
there’s an architect in the stars
weightless and distant
with grace and precision
directing us from a far
[pre+chorus 1]
but we have a price
that we have to pay
choking on questions
that we’ll never say
picking up pieces
and fragments of plans
best laid in waves that
crash through the sand
[chorus]
so i’m told
it’s not my place to ever know
and i’m afraid that we’ve been sold
this gravity will swallow us whole
[verse 2]
sending transmissions
will you ever listen
i wonder how long can you stall
the wars have grown countlеss
the floods will soon drown us
our king just sleeps through it all
[pre+chorus 2]
i’m building a ship
and leaving this place
arrangеments deranged
of souls you made
far up above
but you can be sure
i’m bringing you back
back down to earth
[chorus]
so i’m told
it’s not my place to ever know
and i’m afraid that we’ve been sold
this gravity will swallow us whole
so i’m told
it’s not my place to ever know
and i’m afraid that we’ve been sold
this gravity will swallow us whole
[guitar solo]
[bridge]
silly me
i know that things
always happen for a reason
but as i trace these lines
across the sp+ce that we can’t breathe in
shattered moons
and solar winds
spinning scores of scattered planets
i ride this well of ink
spilled across this endless canvas
i land
and tumble in
through these halls
of ancient marble
clutched firmly
in my hands
tidal trinkets only borrowed
i sink down
and in between
the event and the horizon
and in time i find
we all end right back, just where we started
[outro]
ohhhhhhh
we’re lost in the unknown
endless novas guiding us home
ohhhhhhh
you’ll never be alone
trails of novas guiding us home
ohhhhhhh
we’re lost in the unknown
endless novas guiding us home
ohhhhhhh
you’ll never be alone
tranquil novas guiding us home
