  • Lyrics
Verse:
If you can heal the symptoms but not affect the cause
it's quite a bit like trying to heal a gunshot would with gauze
if you instead attempt to rest the pistol from the hand
then I would not be able to equate my life with sand
Verse:
Flowing through the hourglass, pushing through the funnel
turn once more and racing all your siblings for the tunnel
slide let the silicone embrace you as you fall
then bounce and land and let your brothers crush you to the wall
Verse:
I would choose my own religion worship my own spirit
but if he'd ever preach to me I wouldn't want to hear it
I'd drop him a forgotten god languishing in shame
and then if I hit stormy seas I'd have myself to blame
Bridge:
If you can heal the symptoms but not affect the cause
you can't heal the symptoms
