Chasing Down The Answers


Stand up straight to push away
These failures made to move along
More cobwebs grown to seize the day
Disgraced in time for what went wrong

Now suffocate the rising tide
With lines we once thought bullet proof
Reactions that would blow your mind
Were nothing more than misconstrued

So you know we're always waiting for
Some evidence to come
Still chasing down the answers but
Our legs don't seem to run

If you go to take a picture, please
Don't pretend it's black and white
Redacted truths that go unseen
Down the drain and out of sight

While ego trumps so many things
Our ink stains racing through the dark
Like coal transformed for diamond rings
With every pathway made of sparks

Stay true to your convictions, honey
Everyone still plays a part

So you know we're always waiting for
Some evidence to come
Still chasing down the answers but
Our legs don't seem to run

If you go to take a picture, please
Don't pretend it's black and white
Redacted truths that go unseen
Down the drain and out of sight

Currently our currencies
They're stretched out in defense
While everywhere the faithful stare
Convince it makes no sense

Spoken by the chosen few
Some pieces to reclaim
We've caused such harm with false alarms
But now that's not the case
Well now that's not the case
