Tool - Schism lyrics

rate me

I know the pieces fit cuz I watched them fall away

mildewed and smoldering

fundamental differing

pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion

disintegrating as it goes testing our communication

the light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so

we cannot see to reach an end crippling our communication.

I know the pieces fit cuz I watched them tumble down

no fault

none to blame it doesn't mean I don't desire to

point the finger

blame the other

watch the temple topple over.

To bring the pieces back together

rediscover communication.

The poetry that comes from the squaring off between

And the circling is worth it.

Finding beauty in the dissonance.

There was a time that the pieces fit

but I watched them fall away.

Mildewed and smoldering

strangled by our coveting

I've done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing

Doomed to crumble unless we grow

and strengthen our communication

cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any sense of compassion

between supposed lovers

between supposed brothers.

And I know the pieces fit.
