lyrics

Gather up your raw materials
And line it up just right
Leave your mark in the vast permanence
Scratches in the earth

Understand that it's only limited
Even though it's all time
Mud, sand and stone, stardust created it
Of course it's gonna come down

Break it in half
What was there is gone
Break it in half
It had to be done

When they say that your lines look too parallel
Put your pencil down
Draw your outlines in eraser dust
Wipe away the results

Atoms make up compound molecules
Stacking minerals
Look at yourself you're all a part of it
And we all break down

Break it in half
What was there is gone
Break it in half
It had to be done

No permanence
Nothing left of it
No permanence
It had to be done

Build a shelter keep us safe from harm
Solid blocks of ice
There's no way to destroy this foundation
The sun won't beat down on us

Break it in half
What was there is gone
Break it in half
It had to be done

We think we'll be here forever
But it's not that way
Sidewind through the landmines
'til we all fall down
