Perpetual Notion
THE AGONIST · Eye Of Providence 2015 · Track 06 of 13
Written by The Agonist · Lyrics: Danny Marino, Simon McKay, Vicky Psarakis
Give us your potions To conceal the decay A never ending tomorrow And a forgotten today
An extended stay In the arms of security A fear of the unknown And the slow death of longevity
You have yet to understand existence Tell me what's so grand about infinity
When time is defied (a product in the making) All reason goes blind (to sell to the weaker) And if we deny (victims of nature) The meaning of life (to extend the lie) What will there be left For us to preserve
Come drown in the fountain Submit to the water's grasp Sleepwalking through ages No thought of collapse
Embers glow - hanging on Slips smoke to the sky An act of The Futile To blink the mind's eye
You have yet to understand existence Tell me what's so great about infinity
When time is defied (a product in the making) All reason goes blind (to sell to the weaker) And if we deny (victims of nature) The meaning of life (to extend the lie) What will there be left For us to preserve With no final words To bring meaning to death
Will we ever accept the end?
