[Intro]
[Spoken Word]
E5
Once we've made sense of our world, we wanna go fuck up everybody else's because his or her truth doesn't
match mine. But this is the problem. Truth is individual calculation. Which means because we all have
different perspectives, there isn't one singular truth, is there?

[Verse 1]
E5 G C D
Hold on, down and deeper, down we're going
E5
Way down through the floor
E5 G C D E5
Oh, don't you wanna see what's at the core?
E A C D
Truth is the icy clear stream we dream about
E
Drinking from
E A C D
But it will liquidate liars should they rewire
E
It's smiling bomb
[Chorus 1]
E5 G C D
Hold on, down and down and down and down
E5
We're melting down their throne
E5 G C D
Ho-oh, down through every superstition
E5
Virgin, whore, and crone
E5 G C D
Hold on, down through all the fear gods
E5
To the very truth alone
E5 G C D E5
Hold on, down and down we're going to the bone

[Verse 2]
E A C D
Truth is the permanent path we laugh about
E
But then avoid
E A C D
Thinkin' we all know the way we strayed behind
E
Self-destroyed
[Chorus 2]
E5 G C D
Hold on, down and down and down and down
E5
We're drilling through their stone
E5 G C D
Ho-oh, down through every fairy story
E5
Built to keep us prone
E5 G C D
Hold on, down through every government
E5
With gun and guided drone
E5 G C D
Hold on, down and down we're going to the bone

[Outro]
G#m A E
Rain all the truth down, down on me
G#m A Cmaj7
Raining so much, you make a sea
E
You make a sea
G#m A E
A sea we can sail, then sink like a stone
G#m A Cmaj7
Down to the truth, down to the bone
E E5
Down to the bone
