[Intro: fractured whisper, distant reverse vocal, low sub drone] Without dissolving egregors Consciousness leaks through the seams Confusion enters through the fractures In the mirrors of our eyes [Verse 1: restrained male vocal, sparse piano, pulsing sub] This light reveals the all Every chamber underneath A shifting foundation Moving while we try to see Catch it before it changes Hold the architecture still Name the shape beneath the shape Before the silence learns to speak [Pre-Chorus: rising tension, layered whispers] Through the cracks Through the glass Through the patterns That never last I see the structure I see it move I see the fracture Coming through [Chorus: wide vocal stack, bass swell, melodic glitch] To call out farewell Is it better, is it better To know Know, know Than to wonder Der, der Than to wonder Is it better to know Or live inside the question? Is it better to know Than become the reflection? [Post-Chorus: chopped vocal, stuttering percussion] Know-know-know Than to wonder Won-der-der Know-know-know [Verse 2: darker, more rhythmic] The foundation keeps shifting Every truth becomes a door Every eye becomes a window Every window hides a floor And the light shows everything Nothing stays beneath the skin If I dissolve what held the pattern What remains when I look in? [Pre-Chorus: increasing distortion] Through the cracks Through the glass Through the patterns That never last Catch the movement Catch the truth Before the architecture Rebuilds you [Chorus: larger, layered harmonies] To call out farewell Is it better, is it better To know Know, know Than to wonder Der, der Than to wonder Is it better to know Or live inside the question? Is it better to know Than become the reflection? [Bridge: half-time, intimate vocal, piano isolated] Maybe the fracture Was never the wound Maybe the confusion Was searching for you Maybe the light Doesn't show what is true Maybe it shows What is changing in you [Breakdown: whispered, heavily processed] Dissolve the pattern Catch the foundation Open the fracture Follow the illumination Know... Know... Know... [Final Chorus: explosive, stacked choir + glitch vocal] To call out farewell Is it better, is it better To know Know, know Than to wonder Der, der Than to wonder The light shows the all The architecture is moving Catch it before it falls Catch it before we're choosing To know Know, know Than to wonder Der, der To know Than to wonder [Outro: fading vocal fragments] Know... Know... Know... Than to wonder... Der... Der... The light remains.
