[Verse 1]
I've been treading water
Tracing fire across the sky
k**ing all the daylight
In your un-dreaming eyes
Would you hear a melody
If it didn't rhyme?
Could you feel a rhythm
Seal your place in time?
For centuries we've squandered
Everything that's sacred
These centuries we've stuttered
To replicate the frequency
Frequency
The frequency
[Verse 2]
I was born to remain
You were born to resist
All the lies you maintain
All the cues that I missed
We were the invulnerable everything with nothing left to feel
As you and I divide, we'll compromise and learn to know what's real
[Instrumental]
Your wanderlust
Never carried us
Nor satisfied the need to be saved
Your highness
Never pardoned us
Now we wait in squalor as saints
I am the tyrant
You are the defeated
I am the ocean
You are the depleted
I am the beggar
You are the wealthy
I am proud
You are the one who made me
Don't let go
My arms are full and my burden heavy
I need to know
That all of this is more than temporary
We were the invulnerable everything with nothing left to feel
As you and I divide, we'll compromise and learn to know what's real
We'll never know what's real (x2)
