Lyrics
Quintessence
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The demon skin is covered in fine mist
Opened his hand in my hand
Holding my eyes to the future
Hovering above myself
Letting loose the guided
Punching these holes in my head
The space time paradigm
Omnipresence
Primal instincts
Let it go
Calling reason
Finding you
These wild hearts run
Even deeper
Burning through
These wild hearts run
Let it go
Letting me free the quintessence
In fine mist
Opened his hand in center
Holding my eyes to the future
Hovering above myself
Letting loose the guided
Punching these holes in my head
Losing my skin to the landslide
Omnipresence
Primal instinct
Let it go
Calling reason
Finding you
These wild hearts run
Even deeper
Burning through
These wild hearts run
Shield failure
Speed farewell
