lyrics
A vessel small, thirsts for cause, desperate to make sense of it all
Call us pattern takers but rarely pattern breakers
We outline, reify, models of the world in our mind
Call us pattern makers but rarely pattern breakers
Cause we try to deny the rocky foundation that makes up our lives
Suspend doubt, we lash out and strengthen our zeal when we stamp out all who may try to undermine an order we know to be a divine design. A divine design.
We’re all searching for some structure, shivering apes trying not to suffer
Give us certainty and we will fall to our knees
In the end that's all we're after, some foresight to avoid disasters
Give us certainty and leave our poor minds at ease
And with time some may find secular methods for drawing the lines
Call us pattern makers, still rarely pattern breakers
The experts preach, masses receive, from coats whose evidence few can perceive
Still just pattern takers, we’re all pattern takers
Cause few can understand the complexity and nuance but they stand
And cast doubt or lash out at primitive thoughts they must stamp out
Destroy the lure of theistic lore from an order we know be a tested design and proven design.
We’re all searching for some structure, shivering apes trying not to suffer
Give us certainty, and we will fall to our knees
In the end that's all we're after, some foresight to avoid disasters
Give us certainty and leave our poor minds at ease
So we pound our chest
Swear that we know best
From the text we’ve read we’ve got it figured out
But take a look around
How should we feel now
When we preach like them and we hate like them
We’re all searching for some structure, shivering apes trying not to suffer
Give us certainty and we will fall to our knees
In the end that's all we're after, some foresight to avoid disasters
Yeah, leave our poor minds at ease
Call us pattern takers but rarely pattern breakers
We outline, reify, models of the world in our mind
Call us pattern makers but rarely pattern breakers
Cause we try to deny the rocky foundation that makes up our lives
Suspend doubt, we lash out and strengthen our zeal when we stamp out all who may try to undermine an order we know to be a divine design. A divine design.
We’re all searching for some structure, shivering apes trying not to suffer
Give us certainty and we will fall to our knees
In the end that's all we're after, some foresight to avoid disasters
Give us certainty and leave our poor minds at ease
And with time some may find secular methods for drawing the lines
Call us pattern makers, still rarely pattern breakers
The experts preach, masses receive, from coats whose evidence few can perceive
Still just pattern takers, we’re all pattern takers
Cause few can understand the complexity and nuance but they stand
And cast doubt or lash out at primitive thoughts they must stamp out
Destroy the lure of theistic lore from an order we know be a tested design and proven design.
We’re all searching for some structure, shivering apes trying not to suffer
Give us certainty, and we will fall to our knees
In the end that's all we're after, some foresight to avoid disasters
Give us certainty and leave our poor minds at ease
So we pound our chest
Swear that we know best
From the text we’ve read we’ve got it figured out
But take a look around
How should we feel now
When we preach like them and we hate like them
We’re all searching for some structure, shivering apes trying not to suffer
Give us certainty and we will fall to our knees
In the end that's all we're after, some foresight to avoid disasters
Yeah, leave our poor minds at ease
