lyrics

Shouldering the brunt of sacrificial praise
Every time I couldn’t be bothered
Languishing for want of a sympathetic gaze
What are the odds?
Could it be

Merely coincidence?
Little to be leveraged in our defense
For shame - should we surrender this
Sophistry of courage and cowardice
Are we powerless?

To chart a different course
This late into the game
Damned if we try, and double to wonder
Dutifully forcing fate to take its aim
Reckoning nigh
Could it be

Merely coincidence?
Little to be leveraged in our defense
For shame - should we surrender this
Sophistry of courage and cowardice
Are we powerless?

Fooled into thinking we choose
One party retreats, the other pursues
A careful dance confused
For merely coincidence

Should we surrender this
Sophistry of courage and cowardice
Or claim it’s merely coincidence?
Little to be leveraged in our defense
For shame - should we surrender this
Sophistry of courage and cowardice
Are we powerless?

Particles collide, illuminating grace
What are the odds?
