[Verse 1]
Run within us, run with spite
Set your eyes upon it
With you aggrieved, I see through your eyes, I need
I will not be the fallen
[Chorus]
From this Moses basket
I should have felt something
I should have done something
After I fall, will you be there?
[Verse 2]
Run within us, run with sight
Set your eyes upon it
So breathe in silently
Fade all color from my skin
To reflect from within
[Chorus]
From this Moses basket
I should have felt something
I should have done something
After I fall, will you be there?
[Post-Chorus]
Shall I free it?
Shall I be it?
Sometimes I miss you, I feel it
Reflect from within
[Bridge]
So come down, breathe in, die slow
I should have felt something
In my own mind
I should have felt something
So come down, see them die slow
[Outro]
In the end it will surely break you
Show me power and I'll show you being
In the end it all amounts to nothing
Helpless it's coming on
Mauseum was written by Drew Goddard.
Mauseum was produced by Karnivool & Forrester Savell.
Drew Goddard talked about the title in an interview with Bieler Bros. Records, published on July 31, 2007:
“Mauseum” is something from the weird and wonderful depths of Jon’s brain, you’d have to ask him.
