Thousands of years chasing the heart of all things Ivory towers stacked on our desperate "whys" The sharpest minds claim they've finally won Then watch as the equations refused to fly We stood on the edge of knowing too much Tongues tied in paradox were out of touch The questions burned, the answers dissolved The galaxy laughed as the whole thing revolved Gödel smiled, Heisenberg waved Schrödinger's cat may have misbehaved Every proof is a house of cards Nature just sighs and then it discards Cosmic pigtail pulling, feel the sting We thought we knew almost everything But every answer is just a tease It leaves us bewildered and on our knees It steals our certainty, hides it in the void Left us breadcrumbs in reality's noise Quantum ghosts mock us, probabilities play Further from knowing with every new day The onion of matter; the signs on the sky We counted the quarks as the hours went by We built ivory towers out of the "why" And watched as the math refused to fly
