This is a track about belief systems, and their ultimate arch-enemy : doubt. It seems to be arrogant to believe, because, once you believe, you expect the Universe to act according to your beliefs.
lyrics
truthbender
truthbender
what you're in the mood for, monkeyboy?
sometimes to have a laugh
sometimes to say okay
sometimes to pop a portal
sometimes to lay and pray
sometimes to get away
sometimes to stick around
sometimes to roll on the floor
and bark like a hound
sometimes to love someone
sometimes to lose control
sometimes to hug the blue sky
sometimes to start a war
sometimes to create a dream
and live through it as real
sometimes the dream creates me
and tells me what to feel
sometimes I don't mind
how much of me
my desires devour
by the darkest hour
sometimes to give up
this part of me
invisible contender
who pulls the truthbender
foul truthbender
foul truthbender
start right from the start
to rip it apart
give your best, truthbender
start right from the start
to rip you apart
give your best, truthbender
sometimes I don't mind
how much of me
my desires devour
by the darkest hour
sometimes to give up
this part of me
invisible contender
who pulls the truthbender
sometimes to have a laugh
sometimes to say okay
sometimes to pop a portal
sometimes to lay and pray
sometimes to get away
sometimes to stick around
sometimes to roll on the floor
and bark like a hound
sometimes to love someone
sometimes to lose control
sometimes to hug the blue sky
sometimes to start a war
sometimes to create a dream
and live through it as real
sometimes the dream creates me
and tells me what to feel
sometimes I don't mind
how much of me
my desires devour
by the darkest hour
sometimes to give up
this part of me
invisible contender
who pulls the truthbender
foul truthbender
foul truthbender
start right from the start
to rip it apart
give your best, truthbender
start right from the start
to rip you apart
give your best, truthbender
