Province Lyrics - Frequency - Iq

Before the veil was lifted 

And brought to light the facts 

The whole deception was complete 

The sons of fathers buried 

Their unconnecting tracks 

Beneath the layers of deceit 

Another place and time we'd have known 

We would have seen the last of the lonely 

A beast of burden heard in the tangle of the wire 

It's gone like it was never there 

The great colossus rises and crackles under fire 

The static charge is in the air 

In other realms of reality 

My imitation heart will defend me 

To make secure what you believe 

And surely as the day ends the night 

It becomes a feast set for parasites 

Another place and time we'd have known 

We would have seen the lost and alone 

In others realms of reality 

My unrepentant heart will defend me 

Again somehow 

Not here, not now 

Safer on the waves 

Too dark upon the shore 

Pressure builds again 

More ragged than before 

When the will dissolves 

It changes everyone 

Something worse than us is waiting in the wings 

Can't prepare for this 

Can't think of everything 

Is it obvious what is and isn't done? 

The province of the king 

The wilderness of stolen things 

The untold legacy 

Inertia keeps it out of reach 

Till I bring bad tidings 

The phone rings 

There's no-one there 

You always said it's the one you needed 

You should try to not be defeated 

It's what you wanted, a supernova 

But now it's landed, don't think it over 

It's no invasion at all 

You understand this, it's no solution 

Still under sentence of execution 

No-one like you can create confusion 

Embrace the negative 

With absolution your final positive reward 

And I will follow you down 

To where the silence is lost and found 

Beyond the light that shines only inside 

The province of the king 

It comes to all of us 

Until at last there's no-one else 

And if that's what it always does 

Then saviour, save yourself 

How am I amazed? 

How is it still concealed? 

I cannot count the many ways 

Because there's nothing real 

What ransom do you bring 

Before the wireless king?
