Design - Intellectual

[Chorus]

It's way too late to stay low, I've been climbin' higher

This is my escape, hope it's lead me to the spire

Think I met an angel, I've been gettin' lighter

I don't need my raincoat, the downpour is behind us

Intricate with the design, patterns weaved between the sky

Gazin' up beyond the condensation littering my mind

I don't want this conversation, keep your head and I'll keep mine

We can go our separate ways or reconvene between the lines

Every trеnch is well-defined, hold it stеady with your life

No man's land between the instigators, shells from up behind

Stuck beneath the root of conflict is a difference in design

So each trench produced a symbol representing someone's crimes

It's intentionally vague in its descriptors, 'cause it's hiding from its past

As you dig those trenches deeper, find reminders of the clash

Hold your head above the precinct, feel your skull begin to crack

Each depression on your bones was once a bullet to dispatch

Late to stay low, I've been climbin' higher

This is my escape, hope it's lead me to the spire

Think I met an angel, I've been gettin' lighter

I don't need my raincoat, the downpour is behind us

Intricate with the design, patterns weaved between the sky

Gazin' up beyond the condensation littering my mind

I don't want this conversation, keep your head and I'll keep mine

We can go our separate ways or reconvene between the lines

I did everything I could

But when the bombs dropped, I'm negative degrees

Winter coming soon

For all intents and purposes, it wasn't me

I ain't hit the button, I'm a victim, same as you

But it ain't fair to blame a casualty your evil introduced

But the warfare met its end

There's nothing I could do

I don't hold against you

Oh, no, I don't hold against you

I know what you meant to do

And I know that I would've done the same

There's rust upon my metal, unspent fuel within my heart

But the fire I maintained has fizzled out in several parts

But I reignite the flame with something new

I'm glad it went this way

Oh, I'm happier today
