To Know is to Die lyrics

I had a dream we never existed
Particles of dust, dissolved
I had a dream I saw the world
Before it was made
Everything was silent
Nothing to save

No decisions in life or death
No vacant souls to sacrifice at the end
I could see it collapse
Before it ever began to break and crack

Created by a hand
Left to be destroyed
Are we all victims of torture
Or victims of choice?
A life built on ruins
And piles of innocent
How the f*ck do we live like this?

I refuse to let
The sky be my grave
The Sun collides with the Earth
So tell me who's to blame
We're all sculpted from dirt
Without a blank slate
We've been designed to fail
It was always our fate
Can we compromise?
Kill every thought of a conscious mind
Let it decompose as we grow

A light that won't shine on me
In the afterlife
The thorn in my side
Were we even meant to survive?
To know is to die

I had a dream we never existed

How the f*ck do we live like this?
A cruel punishment to feel like we belong
When we'll barely be missed
No one to mourn the loss
How the f*ck do we live like this?

No decisions in life or death
No vacant souls to sacrifice at the end
I could see it collapse
Before it ever began to break

Can we compromise?
Kill every thought of a conscious mind
Let it decompose as we grow
A light that won't shine
Only in the afterlife
The thorn in my side
Were we even meant to survive?
To know is to die

A light that won't shine
Were we even meant to survive?
A light that won't shine
To know is to die, to know is to die
