The Argument of the Abyss

[The Prudent]: The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom. [The Passionate]: You never know what is enough until you know what is more than enough. [The Prudent]: Your "more than enough" is a cliff. [The Passionate]: A fall. It is the destruction of the vessel. [The Prudent]: Wisdom is found in preservation. [The Passionate]: The vessel is meant to be shattered! To be poured out and remade! Your "structure" is a tomb! [Both, Tense Harmonies]: (Is wisdom found in preservation?) (Or in the shattering of the vessel?) (The path of caution?) (Or the ecstatic revel?) [The Prudent]: Your ecstasy is a fever. It burns the house down, leaving the soul homeless. [The Passionate]: Let it burn! The soul was never meant for a house. It was meant for the sky. [The Prudent]: The road of excess is the only map? [Bridge, Call and Response]: [The Passionate,]: You confuse madness for revelation! (You confuse safety for being alive!) [Outro, The Passionate, Female, Whisper]: You never know what is enough... until you know what is more than enough.
