Abaculus - An Unseeming Elegy Lyrics

How can we expect to rid the world of terrorists
If the kids are the only ones who see where the error is?
It's care to quit, an effort to fit, conscript an end to this
Write a writ expressing intuition to be sick of this
I'm into this! Let's pursue this passion
So that the constant clashing can be rationed
Forget the factions, views of the fashions
Misused views act in action
Change is a game that starts with one player
With the numbers growing at the same rate of ways they're
Finding the time to communicate the signs
Bringing thought and actions to the sphere's sides singing
I won't change the world but I can change your mind
Open up, place beautiful thoughts inside
On this timeline we're a speck of eighty years
See the smile on someone's face, and damn, the point is clear

What's the gain in causing pain?
It's insane the things that we start to blame
There isn't change between you and me
We both have a brain, a heartbeat
Perspective's on his death bed
He said it's time we knew the truth
He told me "I've given my life for this
So the change, it can start with you"

You can look around and think that society is screwed
Sure, our point of view is skewed, take a look at the news
But that skew can be un-skewed! Unscrew we can too
And it's who can move to unskew, that can be you
Too convoluted are our excuses
Misuses of new "ins", we lose in the loose ends
Put truth in the words we say, proof in the way
Create and intake things of value everyday
Sick of the clickbait, let's take it away
We want revolution in thought, but it's going to take
A wake of awaking, a break of the breaking
I'm waiting on great things so I'm taking my role as the
Impetus, into this I promise to dive
Strive side-by-side to awaken the minds
Stop buying into every damn word that is said!
Brains that just take are basically dead

What's the gain in causing pain?
It's insane the things that we start to blame
There isn't change between you and me
We both have a brain, a heartbeat
Perspective's on his death bed
He said it's time we knew the truth
He told me "I've given my life for this
So the change, it can start with you"

There seems to be some things I should address
A mess, a wreckage I reckon is impacting what comes next
I digress, this wretch begins to fetch my demise
As the ocean of emotion tangles up inside
Do you too find that truth cannot always be viewed?
Use of mood dictates how we wish to approach the noose
You're staring the glaring universe in the eyes
Screaming verses but the earthless ghost can't hear your cries
It's defined the outline does not coincide
With the planes others lie on, the ghosts to your left and right
Host misunderstanding, encourage crash landing
Standing for what you adore but then you fall through the floor
Sure there's hurt that comes with the change
But maybe scars are the only way
We can stand up just trust that the struggle is worth it
With each ounce of pain comes a pound of purpose

What's the gain in causing pain?
It's insane the things that we start to blame
There isn't change between you and me
We both have a brain, a heartbeat
Perspective's on his death bed
He said it's time we knew the truth
He told me "I've given my life for this
So the change, it can start with you"

(With, start, start, with you, you)
(Start. With. You.)
