Boxes, Borders, and Lines

[Verse]
Welcome to the meaningless void of existence
I know I sound dramatic, but listen
It's just velocity under distance
We talk a lot, so let's be consistent

And I believe that we're endowed with a soul
But I doubt it when we start to unfold
The complications that reality holds
Converting moral fibers into manifolds

[Not Sure What To Label This Part]
And it's hard for me to say there's more than matter
[But it matters if there's not, it doesn't matter ?]
Wrong or right, I'll take the former or the latter
[And if you stood on [?] then check up on the spatter ?]
Moral indignation, litigation leaves you flattered
[?] talk is cheap, but we went broke on empty chatter
Have your cake and eat it too, but don't forget the batter
[?] bits and pieces up [?] leaves your scattered

[Pre-Chorus]
You can't have it both ways
Give me one or the other
Is this man my blood
Or is he my brother?

Cause every heart is beating
Void of assistance
A thoughtful design repeating
Or electric resistance

[Chorus]
Tell me everything right
Tell me everything wrong
Tell me what's [so ? all ?] inside
Don't just drag me along

A shadow cast on my heart
A pawn who knows not his part
The light is hidden behind
[Bound to the rocks I am blind ?]

[Verse]
And I'm not great with first impressions
Misspoken words lead to misconceptions
And I'm inclined to wander off in self-reflection
But I lack the time for any self-correction

So please believe me, there's no high-horse
I'm in no position to be teaching a life course
I just see the holes in reason caused by the brute force
Trying to find the truth comes out [?] one source

I'm just saying, let's get it straight
The [cause for ?] decisions that we make
And all the rights for granted that we take
Faulty motivation for an idol's sake

[Not Sure What To Label This Part]
We're paradox [?] walking in a contradiction
Is there meaning we've assigned aligned with fact or fiction?
Maybe we created reason to suspend this
Endless existential [bout ?] to end this tempest

[Pre-Chorus]
You can't have it both ways
Give me one or the other
Is this man my blood
Or is he my brother?

Cause every heart is beating
Void of assistance
A thoughtful design repeating
Or electric resistance

[Chorus]
Tell me everything right
Tell me everything wrong
Tell me what's [so ? all ?] inside
Don't just drag me along

A shadow cast on my heart
A pawn who knows not his part
The light is hidden behind
[Bound to the rocks I am blind ?]

[Bridge]
Break my chains, I'm over[?]
Drag my body to the sun
Smash the figures they deceive
Give me something to believe
Cause I'm chasing ghosts I can't see
And my faith's supposed to [?]
My heart grows weary to find
The boxes, borders, and lines

[The cave ?] is crashing down
I'm trapped inside with no way out
What lies beyond the veil will
Calm my mind and turn me pale

[Outro]
Well, I know who I am
Well, I know who you are
I'm so afraid of losing you
And half of my heart

Cause what if I'm nothing at all?
No light, no mind as I fall?
I'm so afraid of losing you
