Fundamental Flaw

Did you see the holes in me
Where I've started to dissolve?
From venom and acid corrosion
Your conceit
You're fundamental

We once shared a common sense
A genetic esprit de corps
Now conflict and disillusion
Has mutated
Our fundamentals

Amethyst, you sparkle shine
Calling to those who search
For comfort in abdication
Floating chained
Yet fundamental

Emptiness, your promise bare
And hollow as your deceit
Turning their hate back against them
That's your lie
It's fundamental

 

Now
I'm trying to take it slow
I'm trying to let you know
That I know where you came from
Wasn't I with you?

That is why
I'm starting to lose control
I'm trying to save your soul
But I can't find the way through
Because you and me
We're fundamentally flawed

Hear me now
We had nothing else but time
But the game's up
And time is running out

 

NOTE: At our core we are all fundamentalists - some just modulate it more than others.
