Josh Benton - Omega: Third Temple lyrics

[Pre-Chorus 1] Dreamer, are you listening? All of your children sit and wonder “Where have you been?” [Chorus] We came here for the sound To overcome the shaking ground beneath my feet Buried under the soil to expand Rebuild the monument lost in sand Restore the balance to the land [Verse 1] To those of you desperately searching for the end You'll search forever in the dark To those of you eager to begin again Your eager eyes won't tell life and d**h apart It's time to wake up [Pre-Chorus 2] Dreamer, you're not listening All of your children wane and wander Where have you been? [Chorus] We came here for the sound To overcome the shaking ground beneath my feet Buried under the soil to expand Rebuild the monument lost in sand Restore the balance to the land (We want the cure to everything we can't afford)(x2) We want the cure to everything we can't afford This life is not enough for us We want the cure to everything that we can't afford This life is not enough for us We want eternity and more To play God in a metaphor Oh, you restless ungrateful When will you learn? You manifest the construct You only borrow what you earn The temple that you seek, it isn't mine (then let it burn, we'll cast our stones aside) I've given you the tools of grand design (overgrown thoughts of our demise) The nature of the gift is astringent (trading faiths, empire's remorse) The complex of ascent is contingent (ends of time, redesign recourse) [Instrumental] [Spoken Word] "But this world that you've created deals in murder and deceit Where profit margins far outweigh the d**h toll of defeat And your leaders have abandoned every shred of moral code The reflexatory impulse of a planet growing cold So if life is an illusion And d**h is just a door Then we must come to the conclusion That we don't know what's in store And that answer begs the question ”well, what is it you believe?” But existence is subjective, you only know what you receive I will write this down on paper so that I can sound it out Document a conscious function we can't afford to go without If feeling is believing you cannot hold it with your fists But if you need to know the answers, then let me ask you this" When you pa** away Will you leave behind your mistakes? Will you move onto unconscious bliss Or dissipate in the abyss Based on decisions that you made?" Well, I know you won't find me there We've shaped the earth., our brothers come to call Trace your roots, strengthen your resolve Where is our resolve?
