The greater good seems an unknown sum[00:21.65]Of separate paths in dispersion[00:27.37]Adding up all our different goals[00:31.55]Only multiplies the division[00:38.22]And we deny we forgot; we forget we deny...[01:09.85]Look back on the days you've walked this track[01:15.40]In all honesty, haven't you ever thought[01:20.48]Every yesterday is punched back to back[01:25.84]And every consecutive day is but a copied fraud?[01:31.74]Not a single incident you wanted to occur[01:36.41]Not a dream that isn't pasted back from pieces[01:41.91]Every new person you still recognize through a blur[01:47.48]Every new place is but a setting from the movies[01:54.34]And I don't want to hear[01:57.45]That insane denial anymore[02:04.87]'Cause it strikes me as evading[02:08.29]Of what you're accountable for[02:13.88]I admire your tenacious clamp[02:19.52]Being born convinced this time's the first[02:24.81]Without prior deeds and a conscience blank[02:30.12]Disbelieving the best, suppressing the worst[02:35.67]Not a single incident that you wanted to occur[02:40.51]Not a dream that isn't pasted back from pieces[02:46.00]Every new person you still recognize through a blur[02:51.49]Every new place is but a setting from the movies[02:58.49]And you really need to look[03:01.19]At your insane denial fast[03:09.04]That it truly wasn't you who have[03:12.75]Made this misery of the past![03:17.56]More universes ago than we care to remember[03:23.48]Lies the insidious source of that misty notion[03:29.31]The vague hunch we somehow get when current events[03:34.37]Lightly spark the glow of a smoldering ember[03:39.66]When inventions that sail in on intuition[03:44.69]Don't appear an innovation bright and true[03:49.94]We are simply treading down the rut of many ages[03:55.28]Deep inside we know - we know: it's nothing new[05:25.83]Let's commit ourselves to what we are[05:31.49]Causing all effects that we are victims to[05:36.76]Take a broader look from a distance far[05:42.14]Recognize what you've done is just what you'd do[05:47.69]We haven't changed through the eons behind us[05:52.68]But we will if we take responsibility[05:57.86]Admitting to our earlier forgotten actions[06:03.40]Let's detach ourselves from what we seem to be[06:10.19]And I want you to swallow[06:13.50]Your insane denial fast[06:20.91]That your predicament was caused[06:24.18]By others in some distant past[06:29.54]More universes ago than we care to remember[06:35.47]Lies the insidious source of that misty notion[06:41.06]The vague hunch we somehow get when current events[06:46.37]Lightly spark the glow of a smoldering ember[06:51.56]When inventions that sail in on intuition[06:56.67]Don't appear an innovation bright and true[07:01.89]We are simply treading down the rut of many ages[07:07.13]Deep inside we know - we know: it's nothing new
