This fast and intense song is about the way those in culture who have power and influence often use it to deceive us, and about our responsibility to question the pre-packaged stories that they provide to us. Its theme of questioning messages in pursuit of the whole truth is similar to other Thrice...
[Verse 1]
The blue light spills like oceans
We smile and let it in
It cures us of our questions
Like hoods on peregrine
[Pre-Chorus]
Knowledge locked in a tower
Barons will hold the key
But if knowledge is power
Know this is tyranny
All we're asking for is what's ours
[Chorus 1]
You think they're selling you truth
Truth is, they're selling you out
The truth's they're selling you out
[Verse 2]
The black ink fuels our notions
That all the facts are in
It cures us of our questions
Like hoods on peregrine
[Pre-Chorus]
Knowledge locked in a tower
Barons will hold the key
But if knowledge is power
Know this is tyranny
All we're asking for
All we're asking for is what's ours
[Chorus 2]
You think they're selling you truth
But they're just selling you
[Bridge]
And if we keep buying in
The line between lies and truth
Will wear paper thin
Paper thin
[Chorus 1]
You think they're selling you truth
The truth is, they're selling you out
