easy running from it for awhile but
when it catches up, it cuts deep and
all along, you thought you were moving
you stood still
you stood still
easy running when you think you're getting somewhere
did you think it was making a difference
i've got another bridge to sell you
to sell you
to sell you
easy honey, don't get all worked up
nothing here to see
move along be careful now
you don't wanna look too close
you might see
you might see
it's all a careful mirage
your heroes are all in disguise
pulling back the veil seems simple
it's enough to make you feel worthy
all at once you know you are not prepared
you can't turn back
can't even
shield yourself or cover your eyes
your heroes are all in disguise
you can do what you will
you can say what you see
you can keep your beliefs
they don't matter to me
as above, so below
let intent lead the way
and when you gild the truth
you just get in your own
your own way
it's all a careful mirage
your heroes are all in disguise
easy running from it for awhile but
when it catches up, it cuts deep and
all along, you thought you were moving
you stood still
you can do what you will
you can say what you see
you can keep your beliefs
they don't matter to me
as above, so below
let intent lead the way
and when you gild the truth
you just get in your way
the immutable course of Eternity
waits for no man
understand there is no time or place
where you won't be perceived anyway
where you won't be perceived anyway
where you won't be perceived anyway
