lyrics

Where does it go?
Where does it go?
Where does the light go when depth overtakes the surface?
Where does it go?
Where does it go?
Where does the depth go when the surface returns?

The relentless nature of the cycle of life
Is that too much light causes the burns
That burn through the day, on into the night
That wreak havoc on might

The law of diminishing returns
Tipping points on into eternity

The unbearable nature of the darkness of truth
Is that shadows glisten in the mist
For all of the missed in the prime of their youth
Everything dies too soon

The law of diminishing returns
Tipping points on into eternity

Random, defined, unholy, divine
Recovery transforms into brevity

Transform into brevity

Die before your prime
It's all surface after that
No depth, intrigue, or disguise
Just loved ones watching you die
Die before your prime
It's all surface after that
No depth, intrigue, or disguise
Just loved ones watching you die
Watching you die
