In the Beginning Songtext
von Jackson Fig

In the beginning
There was silence
And no kindness
And no shadows dancing

In the beginning
It was tragic
And pitch black
All until this one instance

A low rumble humbled us
Then someone struck a rock with a tree branch
It sounded like way more than noise to us
Like there′s gotta be more than this

And we felt different
In the arrangement
Lifted up, coerced


Like participants
That's me, that′s us
Willing participants, you see
Like participants, you and me
All just here and now
And make 'em dial in
All night long

In the beginning
No one could find us
We had no myths
No rudimentary instruments

Then came the branch
Then came the horns
Then came the drums
Then we all started counting to four
It was like
One, two, three, four, like
One, two, three, four, like
One, two, three, four, like

And we felt different
In the arrangement
Lifted up, coerced


Like participants,
Do you see it now?
Willing participants
You see us?
It's you and me, we
Participants, you see
It′s what we′re doing now
playin the noise with a flicker, alright

And we been waiting around
Think they'll let us stay around a while?
Tune in until we sound like we are...
Well, it′s better than the cave drawings I was making
With all of the game you brought in
There was blood on the floor and the walls
Now it's not
