about

what if you know everything but have no idea if anything of it is true?

question everything.

lyrics

To much empty spaces in this room that should be filled.
Take all these friendly faces nicely framed, calm and still.
Fill out all these spaces with their mouths that sing your songs.
Of the ideas you all share in your heads. They’re never wrong.
Tongue by tongue. - Brick by brick.
Layer over layer of mirror shards and assent.
Fill this gap. Stuff this breach.
Build the perfect surface to reflect every speech.
Caress your work.
And feed it well.
Accord to all these faces. to the stories that they tell.
Nodding approvals
and shaking hands.
Sometimes trading sayings that carry on ideals.
In this room
which is so safe.
Everywhere are pillows of likeminded brains.

The density of all the truth
Clocks every further look.
Hides other rough realitys.
And blood behind the wall.


This room that mirrors everything
of what you all approve.
This room that locks out everything
That can’t possibly be true.

Now scream out loud
Or just give a whisper.
And bath in agreement and selfmade wisdom.
Your predication
will find its pairs.
And help to create the feeling of a righteous world.
While behind these selfbuild walls
The world shines in it’s own light.
And stands in it’s own darkness.
Untouched by the echoes in your chamber.
Untouched by the mimic plastered to your walls.

And in that corner lays a hammer.
Without a use.
