Panacea EP Official Lyrics

Updated: Dec 11, 2023



The Science Says

Key: C Minor (C, D, Eb, F, G, Ab, Bb, C)

Time Signature: 4/4

Tempo: 110 bpm


I’m told you’re wasting my time

You intend to...

Wasting my, wasting my...

Break away and tell them how you spread your little lies

Disseminate certainty

Locked away; compassion and capacity to sympathize, empathize, simple minds, yeah

We all know the science says there’s something wrong with it all

We all know the science says there’s something wrong with us all

I’m told you’re wasting my time

You intend to...

Wasting my, wasting my...

Locked away, you hide the answers to your little lies

Perpetuate atrophy

Break away and separate yourself from fossilized, ossified, dirty minds, yeah

We all know the science says there’s something wrong with it all

We all know the science says there’s something wrong with us all

Primeval animals

Let it go

We’re drowning

Left broken

How do you sleep?

Oh, you’re waiting on your own

For your, for your piece

You’re waiting on your own

Its old, its old, its old, this fucking noise

Denounce your little lies (x4)

We all know the science says there’s something wrong with it all

We all know the science says there’s something wrong with us all

The science says (x3)



Oblivion

Key: G Phrygian (G, Ab, Bb, C, D, Eb, F, G)

Time Signature: 4/4

Tempo: 98 bpm


You know I cannot, you know I never will (x4)

That’s no way to be kind

Deny you in your mind

To love and to hope and conceive what I can never find

You know today I want to fall

You know a way I’ll never know

You’re not like the others ‘cuz you’ll die to bring me down

To bring me down (x2)

This is an awakening of the mind

A metamorphosis I surmise

And I wait, and I wait, and I wait, and I...

And if I were to be much more than what you see?

A lover, a saviour, a hero in a time of need?

Would you and I go toe to toe, or would you rest and let me go?

Escaping oblivion

With your hands you hold me down

You hold me down (x4)

This is an awakening of the mind

A metamorphosis I surmise

And I wait, and I wait, and I wait, and I...

You get it

I want it

I’ve been deceived and you flaunt it

You think that I’ll never hold on to me

It’s always the same shit

I’m tired of the indifference

Encouraged as I escape oblivion

Go on, you can lead yourself right out (x2)

Right on outta here

Don’t wait (for me)

I can see you’re wrong

Always you keep pressure on me

Don’t wait (for me)

I can see your time has come

Just wait you’ll see that you’re wrong

You know I cannot, you know I never will

You know I, you know I, you know I, you know... (x4)

Never alone (x3)

There’s no way I can let this go

You get it

I want it

I’ve been deceived and you flaunt it

You think that I’ll never hold on to me

It’s always the same shit

I’m tired of the indifference

Encouraged as I escape oblivion

This is an awakening of the mind (x3)

It’s a metamorphosis I surmise

This is an awakening of the mind (x3)

It’s a metamorphosis I surmise


The Silence

Key: G Minor (G, A, Bb, C, D, Eb, F, G)

Time Signature: 5/4

Tempo: 124 bpm

We refuel the fire

Forcing us to breath in

Always try to fly by

Dimming down the bright eyes

And it’s all I wanted

Fusion over innocence

Idolize the high life

Beating down the bright eyes

Loosing sense, annihilate (2)

We live through what left my heart open

Like a presence missing in the silence

Beating this in your way

Beating this, annihilate

Beating this if only I’d seen the signs defining

Loosing sense, annihilate (x2)

You deface your hour (x2)

We refuel the fire

Forcing us to breath in

Always try to fly by

Dimming down the bright eyes

Loosing sense, annihilate (x2)

We endure through what’s left unspoken

As our future’s lost within the silence

Beating this in your way

Beating this, annihilate

Beating this if only I’d seen the signs defining

You’re waiting to find it’s the same

And I know way, know way down that I decide always

Beating this in your way

Beating this, annihilate

Beating this if only I’d seen the signs defining, ohh

You deface your hour (x2)

Loosing sense, annihilate (x2)



Panacea

Key: C Phrygian (C, Db, Eb, F, G, Ab, Bb, C)

Time signature: 5/4 and 4/4

Tempo: 115 bpm

You wait, it’ll come back around (x2)

They wait. You wait. They wait, and I wait for this cure

But will we ever find an urn for your hunger?

Insatiable

Let us go

In your eyes; annihilation

Don’t let it out (x4)

Pursuing panacea

Don’t let it out (x4)

You’ll miss

You’ll mourn

You’ll cry in sorrow

Deceive your faith and mind your hunger

Fight your inner demons under fearful supervision, admonition and finally see...

Me and you, once, were only star dust

And you’d kill us all on fucking little lies, on multifarious eyes, on melanin

Demand compliance

Don’t let it out (x8)

We, the primates of fire, we forfeit it all

We’re scared and afraid of the unknown

And do you not see its deep down inside?

Inside of us all it’s waiting to fly

The violence innate

The violence in mind

The violence alone

The violence inside

The violence waits

The violence lies

The violence (x3)

And we own our way

All life, you decide

We have no other way

I bleed in my arms

I wait for the end

I wait for the cure

Reflect inside

I guess I’ve known

That we are the ones

The ones who must show

Breeding this way

Bleeding us all

Just once in our lives I’d like you to know

To finally cheat our end

But deep down inside it’s waiting to breed

The violence

Do we not sense the violence? (x3)

Believe it

The violence innate

The violence in mind

The violence alone

The violence inside

The violence waits

The violence lies

The violence, the violence, the violence that breeds

The violence (x7)

The violence that breeds
