Intro

Verse 1

All my life I've been treading

paper in the space between the words

And there implied is that

I'm but another body for the birds

carrion absurd and accidental

atoms beating air

carrying on unwitting orphan

of an unyielding despair

Guitar solo

Verse 2

But linger on just for a moment

until we can ascertain if

Amsomething's wrong with me

Or the assumptions of these

self indicted brains

Because I contend that all

of this is more than just

a meaningless charade

That each and every moment is

a bottle with a message hid away

Chorus 1

If anything means anything

There must be something meant

for us to be a song

that we were made to sing

There must be so much

more than we can see

Verse 3

But all our lives we've

been treading paper

in the space between the words

And there implied's the thought

that we are barely more than

bodies for the birds carrion

They say that we're just accidental

atoms beating air carrying on and on

Unwitting orphans of an unyielding

despair

Bridge

But our hearts

tell a different story

our hands feel a different pulse

Chorus 2

Silence:

If anything means anything

There must be something meant

for us to be

Distortion:

If anything means anything

There must be something meant

for us to be a song

that we were made to sing

There must be so much

more than we can see

Outro

Something fathomless deeper than our

pride can dive numinous higher than

Our hearts can rise transcendent

further than our thoughts

can reach immanent

closer than the air we breathe
