Can you not see the construct?
Can you not see the construct?

Can you not see the construct:
This life here, the mind rush?
Can you not see the blindness:
Deep in your sight, your closed eyes?
Can you not see the ego:
Whatever you are, identity?
Can you not see the nothing:
Paradox of life; paradox of sight?

Can you not see wherein lies the difference?
Can you not see wherein lies the difference?
Can they not see wherein lies the difference?
Can they not see wherein lies the difference?

Light had begun to seep far in
Deeper than we could contain.
So we joined the monster legion
To assault the bright brigade.

Drove them all out through the choke points,
Keeping all the shadows safe.
Had the light reached any farther,
All these souls would suffocate.

Relinquishing their thoughtless mission,
In haste they all evacuate.
Guarded are the lives below here,
At least for today,
At least for today.
