lyrics

Callow:
How can you outsmart
The illusion of the eye(s)?
Optics are on opposite sides
i'll find the circumference of this circle
If it'll allow me to exit at the radius

Foremost:
Time will try to hold me back
As my conscience politely begs,
"Don't forget, just forgive..."
Tend to your objectives
& pull out the list

Nicolai:
We can see
Peel back tall layers of dichotomy
i won't believe
That losing ground to you
Was a simple thing
We all just stepped away for a second
We were all swept away...

Foremost:
Time will try to hold me back
As my conscience politely begged(s),
"Don't forget, just forgive..."
Tend to your objectives
(&) pull out the list

Olden:
With your inner thoughts exposed to the outside
i've heard, learned & now petrified
Just as long as you promise to stay true to your promises
i promise the Truth will stay with you like a promise stuck to

Foremost:
Time will try to hold me back
As my conscience politely begs,
"Don't forget, just forgive..."

i, Aura :: us & all:
i a m n o w .
i a m n o w .
i a m n o w .
i a m n o w .
