Lyrics
Set out into the darkness
With a map inside my head
I was a passive passenger
On the path from born to dead
The etchings in the stone
Hard-coded constants lead the way
Through springs and summers
Burning autumns
Winters cold decay
And I was okay
And I was okay
And I was okay
And I was okay
Took comfort in the concept
Of a sealed and static fate
My destiny would come to me
And I just had to wait
Though the leaves swept by the breeze
Looked lawless in the squall
There was nothing accidental
In the physics of the fall
No accidents at all
No accidents at all
No accidents at all
No accidents at all
So I know I'm in the right place
But I still feel lost in the space
A trajectory that's hard to embrace
An aspiration I cannot erase
Oh, I wanna change the plan
But I'm not sure if I can
Unless changing it has been part of it
Since it began
There are no branches in this code
There are no forks in this old road
The only way out is to hope
To make it in again
So even when it feels like it's impossible
I'll try to keep it happening
Well the future may be written
But I've gotta learn to read
Deterministic chaos
Growing from a random seed
Quantum entropy
From a dimension I can't see
Still causal and effectual
Cause all is meant to be
But maybe this maze
Is completely devoid of design
Maybe this phase
Is really the end of the line
Cold stars above
Machining us into ourselves
And all of my love
Nil no matter the depth that it delves
No matter where it delves
I know I'm in the right place
But I still feel lost in this space
A trajectory that's hard to embrace
An aspiration I cannot erase
Oh, I wanna change the plan
But I'm not sure if I can
Unless changing it has been part of it
Since it began
There are no branches in this code
There are no forks in this old road
The only way out is to hope
To make it in again
So even when it feels like it's impossible
I'll try to keep it happening
I'll try to keep it happening
I'll try to keep it happening
I'm gonna try to keep it happening
