Overture

It starts with our eyes well acquainted with the dark
 The mind was made to illuminate the heart
 And when every constellation suddenly appeared
 Through telescopes and calculations, the far was pulled so near
 Even after everything we've seen
 We've barely caught a glimpse of what it means
 In the architecture of the soul
 The universe began
 With our eyes closed
 We claim our land
 We tame our seas
 We carve our names
 On the surface of history
 'Til our hands get tied
 By the stubborn will of gravity
 Even after everything we've seen
 We've barely caught a glimpse of what it means
 In the architecture of the soul
 The universe began
 With our eyes closed
 In the rise and fall
 Of a newborn's chest
 Like the ocean swells
 We inhale, exhale and reset
 Every living thing
 Is in this constant state of unrest
 Even after all our history
 We've barely caught a glimpse of what it means
 In the architecture of the soul
 The universe began
 Even after everything we've seen
 We've barely caught a glimpse of what it means
 In the architecture of the soul
 The universe began
 With our eyes closed
