lyrics

gather up the facts, study the code
piece out the puzzle, shoulder the load
if you step out and make your claim
gonna be times you call in the rain

we shroud our doubt, hidden in pledges
our cries deflecting sideways glances
clear reflecting crystal edges
break barbs and locks and chains and fences

we took our chance, we took our test
look at us dance dance dance in our mess

ideas are cheap and so is trying
nobody cares if everyone’s lying
that makes us free to work while seeming
like our scribbles have some meaning

through it all we have one duty
don’t get confused by pointless beauty
down in the void there is a core
deep in the dark there is a door

it’s our mess we’ll dance if we want to
and we want to
