Lyrics

Intro

Hey!

Disconnect the wire!

(System down!)

(System down!)

Verse 1

I traded my reflection for a question mark

Chewing on the paradox

Bought a telescope to watch my own skull

Somebody sold me a god in a paper cup

Gave it back

Asked for something sharper

Pre-Chorus

Maybe the answer is a door

Maybe the door is a mouth

Maybe the mouth is mine

Chorus

Am I the thought or the thinker

Am I the river or the stone

Am I the thought or the thinker

Burn the map and walk alone

Post-Chorus

Na na na na

Na na na na

Walk alone!

Verse 2

Logic is a ladder that I built from grief

Climbed it to the attic of a burning belief

Truth is a hammer and my head is a nail

Every axiom I trusted turned to dust without a trail

I am not the body

I am not the name

Pre-Chorus

Maybe the mirror is a liar

Maybe the liar is kind

Maybe the kind is cruel

Chorus

Am I the thought or the thinker

Am I the river or the stone

Am I the thought or the thinker

Burn the map and walk alone

Post-Chorus

Na na na na

Na na na na

Walk alone!

Bridge

Time is a rumor

Space is a joke

Death is a comma

Not a period

(Greater than!)

(Less than!)

(Equal to nothing!)

Breakdown

Question everything!

Question everything!

Who built the frame around my eyes!

Who built the frame!

Who built the frame!

Chorus

Am I the thought or the thinker

Am I the river or the stone

Am I the thought or the thinker

Tear the temple from its throne

Post-Chorus

Na na na na

Na na na na

Let it go

Na na na na

Na na na na

I don't know
