Autonomy Lyrics

The science of all things, with religion set aside
The intelligent decide to illustrate mankind
The hardest pill to take
a preference we couldn't forsake
Is it bigger than us, now that we are conscious?
I cannot accept, this is all there is?
From beginnings to their ends
in which we won't transcend
The autonomy we know
is up against a wall
Our minds cannot express
how we've become mindless

I cannot say or is it clichéd?
To coin a phrase, only God knows

Don't you change a thing
when you know who you are
Are you still unsure?
while you sit on the fence?
Don't you change a thing
Just know that you are
the only one of you
We are all at war
with ourselves
The search for the divine
has finally reached a deadline
The arguments endure
conflicts long overdue
For this logical shrine
in which we seem entwined
The autonomy we know
is up against a wall
Our minds cannot express
how we've become mindless
Chorus

For all we know
it's been preordained
For all we know
we prefer the mundane
For all we know
it cannot be explained
For all we know
it's been preordained

Pre chorus
