[Verse 1]

Through the broken looking glass

Is it this reality I see

Or a screen to rewrite history

How can this be our final decree

On my knees in this atomic autumn field

This cannot be real


[Chorus]

Is it the future that I see

In a wasteland staring back at me

The cinder in the rain

Just a reminder of all the mistakes we made

A silent word to the wise

Written in the gravestone dust of our own demise

If we seek long enough to find

What we left buried...


[Verse 2]

The key that unlocks the vessel

(A sеquence in the mazе)

The answer to the distress call

(A signal in the haze)

The seas we learn to navigate

(A compass spinning out of control)

The souls we have to save

From no one - no one but ourselves


[Chorus]

Is it the ghost of you I see?

On the other side, looking back at me

Whispering in the ashen wind

All the warnings we never cared to believe

If I could slow this continuum

Long enough to linger in

The sentimental remembrance

Of the world we used to know


[Outro]

So why

Are we willingly dancing with death

On the edge of an imminent precipice

When there's no one left

To ask the question

Why?

Are we gazing into the abyss

On the verge of rescinding our genesis

When there’s nowhere left to go

But into the great unknown
