Design

[Chorus]
It's way too late to stay low, I've been climbin' higher
This is my escape, hope it's lead me to the spire
Think I met an angel, I've been gettin' lighter
I don't need my raincoat, the downpour is behind us
Intricate with the design, patterns weaved between the sky
Gazin' up beyond the condensation littering my mind
I don't want this conversation, keep your head and I'll keep mine
We can go our separate ways or reconvene between the lines

[Verse 1]
Every trеnch is well-defined, hold it stеady with your life
No man's land between the instigators, shells from up behind
Stuck beneath the root of conflict is a difference in design
So each trench produced a symbol representing someone's crimes
It's intentionally vague in its descriptors, 'cause it's hiding from its past
As you dig those trenches deeper, find reminders of the clash
Hold your head above the precinct, feel your skull begin to crack
Each depression on your bones was once a bullet to dispatch

[Chorus]
Late to stay low, I've been climbin' higher
This is my escape, hope it's lead me to the spire
Think I met an angel, I've been gettin' lighter
I don't need my raincoat, the downpour is behind us
Intricate with the design, patterns weaved between the sky
Gazin' up beyond the condensation littering my mind
I don't want this conversation, keep your head and I'll keep mine
We can go our separate ways or reconvene between the lines

[Verse 2]
I did everything I could
But when the bombs dropped, I'm negative degrees
Winter coming soon
For all intents and purposes, it wasn't me
I ain't hit the button, I'm a victim, same as you
But it ain't fair to blame a casualty your evil introduced
But the warfare met its end
There's nothing I could do
I don't hold against you
Oh, no, I don't hold against you
I know what you meant to do
And I know that I would've done the same
There's rust upon my metal, unspent fuel within my heart
But the fire I maintained has fizzled out in several parts
But I reignite the flame with something new
I'm glad it went this way
Oh, I'm happier today
