The Independent Variable - The Lesser Lyrics

They started to learn, they started to wander
And instincts were all that nature could offer
They knew how to breed, they knew how to murder
Evolving is not the same from one to another
How do you control the minds of the lesser
Look up at the sky
They create the devil
Then they're afraid you'll follow
They will give you the apple
Just trying to keep your mouth full
And if their words ring hollow
You know the earth will bubble
But if you keep your eyes closed
You know salvation follows
They started to believe, they started to wonder
What happens in the end, don't know, but do you wanna
Giving up on life for the promise of another
Or do you take a chance on terrifying fire
How do you control the mind of another
Waiting for the sky
They create the devil
Then they're afraid you'll follow
They will give you the apple
Just trying to keep your mouth full
And if their words ring hollow
You know the earth will bubble
But if you keep your eyes closed
You know salvation follows
You sew them shut, you better sew them shut
They're starting to learn
You sew them shut, you better sew them shut
They're starting to learn
They're starting to learn
Starting to learn
