[Verse 1]
Em D C
Lay the new foundations; reprise
Em D C
A wave in stone to slow the sunrise
Em D C
And bridge the two points of view
Em D C
The first asymmetries that lead to this life
[Verse 2]
Em D
Strange are the things that will come around
C
A false parousia made to weigh you down
Em D
When truth and lies both compromise
C
Return to the question, I'm willing to die
[Verse 3]
Em D
If this is real and this is anticipation
C
This is all, all I can generate
Em D
Protozoa spark, she's torn from the dark
C
To be
[Instrumental]

Em D C
[Verse 4]
Em D
Mimicry of motions prime
C
In death coerced to test your worth
Em D
But you survived the override
C
Above/below, free to grow
[Bridge]
Em G
C Em G
Know it in your mind, hear it once and now you bear the load
[Chorus]
C
Fractals in a palm of a single tree
D
Debase a joyous song into elegy
[Post-Chorus]
Em D C
Are you ready for life?
Em D C
Are you ready for life?
[Verse 5]
Em D
On all that's said you can't rely
C
A fool, the first to die for verse
Em D
We start again and underline
C
Make a stand in afterglow
[Instrumental]
Em G C
[Chorus]
C
Fractals in a palm of a single tree
D
Debase a joyous song into elegy
[Post-Chorus]
Em D C
Are you ready for life?
Em D C
Are you ready for life?
[Outro]
