Lyrics

[00:56.50] I am the suck of air you take
[00:59.70] That you've had many times before
[01:03.20] I am the blow you try to fake
[01:07.71] But which still throws you out the door
[01:11.84] I am the air that fills your lungs
[01:16.60] But leaves you emptier below
[01:20.13] I am the void that you can't explain
[01:24.16] But which is where you want to go
[01:37.90] Flame sucks between the balls of steel
[01:44.19] Nothing moves, the air itself congeals
[01:52.20] Look at the flame if you want to
[01:54.44] Hear the sharp crack of the fission
[01:56.16] Smell the brief vapor of ozone
[01:57.47] Feel static motion
[02:01.38] I am the love, you try to hide
[02:04.20] But which all can understand
[02:07.99] I am the hate you still deny
[02:12.73] Though the blood is on your hands
[02:16.37] I am the peace, you're searching for
[02:20.59] But you know you'll never find
[02:23.95] I am the pain you can't endure
[02:28.25] But which tingles in your mind
[02:40.67] Flame sucks between the balls of steel
[02:46.70] Nothing moves, the air itself congeals
[02:55.54] Look at the flame if you want to
[02:57.33] Hear the sharp crack of the fission
[02:58.91] Smell the brief vapor of ozone
[03:00.33] Feel static motion
[05:08.40] I am the joy you really pay for
[05:14.24] But which comes completely free
[05:17.75] I am your God on the final day
[05:22.49] For the truth is you and me
